The PowerMac G3 was a Macintosh computer that appeared in 1997 and was discontinued in 1999. The G3 refers to the PPC processor. It was subsequently followed by the G4, G5 and then the Intel processor based Macs. It would have limited use today being unable to run the latest versions of Mac OS X.

What is the difference between PowerMac G3 and G4 cases?

A PowerMac G3 case first started life as a biege box shape, with no usb or firewire, but with scsi and ethernet ports. Later after the introduction of the iMac G3, the PowerMac G3 case was completely redesigned to match. This introduced the 'sculpted' tower in Ice Blue & White with the corners looking like handles. This case design introduced firewire 400 and usb 1 for the first time. A few years later with the vastly more powerfull G4 processors came the new Graphite coloured but with same shape, more I/O. Later case revisions include the Quicksilver G4 and the Mirrored CD/DVD trat doored versions. Check out Apples support section on the webstie for more details.
