My Mac g3 doesn't have the same look as a regular Mac why not?
There could be several reasons. One likely one is that you do not have a modern version of Mac OS X. G3s shipped with Mac OS 8.6 or Mac OS 9. They cannot run Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) at all, and can only run Mac OS X 10.4 with hefty and usually unsupported upgrades. In the Related links section, you will find screenshots of Mac OS 8.6, Mac OS 9, Max OS X 10.0, and Mac OS X 10.1, so you can get an idea of what those systems look like, and if they look like the one you are running. There is also a link on how you can upgrade older Macs, although it is probably not worth the effort.

You cannot without erasing your hard drive and installing Mac OS 9 from scratch. Even then Mac OS 9 may not run on modern Mac hardware because Mac OS 9 needs the ROM chip to boot.

Mac OS X v10.0 - Mac OS X v10.4 support Mac OS 9 applications and can run them, you just need to install the Mac OS 9 compatibility program which can be found on the Mac OS X Install CD.
