This is the iMac G3/PowerMac G3 keyboard. Seen loads of these on YouTube.
It's awesome but the hockey puck mouse that pairs with it sucks because it's not ergonomic.

haha...this is a slot load 500mhz...its faulty. Right now there is no HDD. HDD does not bother me, what bothers me is that, there is no chime or even the grey apple logo, which points towards something serious...as in the logic board or so...anyways i will treat this Mac as a platform to dissect and learn about Imac G3's.

I have another G3 600Mhz, which boots without issues...so this would be the Mangsa ! anyways...for now it is in vacation !

You'd never know. The PSU might not be able to supply enough power to everything because it degrades over the time.
Try using the PSU from your other G3 icon_rolleyes.gif
