Mac84 | Did This RUSTED Apple Molar Mac G3 Survive? @Mac84 | Uploaded November 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
I recently picked up this abandoned Power Mac G3 All-In-One (aka "Molar Mac") system. It had been neglected and left for dead! Let's see what horrors lurk within this rust bucket and if we can get it working again!

Thanks to @ActionRetro for his super fabulous cameos and beige lifting abilities!
