Hi all,
Recently, the G3 iMac that my parents have been using has begun to turn off unpredictably. I did some research and discovered that I need to do a firmware update on it. Only thing is, I need OS 9 to do this. This is the second G3 iMac I've owned. I did the firmware update on the first model (and then removed OS9), but with this model I obviously forgot to do the firmware update and just did a clean install of Panther - removing OS 9 in the process. Any ideas as to how one can legally get a hold of OS 9 these days. And, dare I ask, if you only need it for the firmware update (after which it will be deleted) do you think an Apple Store will be kind enough to do it for free? Cheers. |

Your best bet is ebay or check around at local schools to see if they have any old copies laying around.
