stuff you didn't know about the imac G5:
- it has parts you can install yourself - apparently ...
"the iMac G5 is designed to make it easy for you to install replacement parts if you need to"-- not only the AirPort Extreme card and RAM, but also the internal hard drive, the power supply, the optical drive, the modem, the entire LCD display, and the mid-plane assembly (which includes "the main logic board, the G5 processor, fans, and so forth"). In other words, pretty much the whole darn system is user-replaceable part by part, except for, apparently, the speakers. So don't blow 'em out.

Also, if you happened to buy a Hewlett Packard version of the ipod, here's a helpful little page, just in case you can't tell the difference. woo. look for the logo.
Finally, instructions for people who don't know How to pick up and carry your iMac G5
