To back up an iMac G5, you can use an external hard drive and the built-in Time Machine feature if the OS is compatible, or manually copy important files to the external drive. Alternatively, you can use third-party backup software that suits your needs. Ensure that your external drive is formatted correctly (HFS+ for Mac) and regularly update your backups to keep your data safe. Remember to verify your backups periodically to ensure data integrity.
The iMac G5 came out August 31, 2004 and was discontinued March 2006.

The G5 came with the OS 9 operating system and had a Power PC processor. It was the last edition of Mac OS. The iMac switched to the OSx operating system with the next iMac. There was an education only model G5 that did ship with OSx Panther.
An iMac G5 can only run Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) it cannot run 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or 10.7 (Lion). So the answer must be 'No'.
CrossOver requires a Mac with an Intel Core Duo processor to replicate a Windows type computer. It will not work on a G5 iMac.
An "Intel-based iMac G5" would be an oxymoron. The "G5" part of it's name refers to having a PowerPC processor.
Although the G5 is out of date is still a decent computer.
Yes, it does.
No, you cannot directly use an iMac as a display for a Mac Tower G5. While some iMac models support Target Display Mode, this feature only works with certain iMacs and requires a compatible Mac to connect. The G5 does not have the necessary video output options to utilize this feature. To use the iMac as a screen for the G5, you would need a separate capture device or software solution.
The G5 does not have an Intel processor it has an IBM Power PC processor.
PowerPC version of Ubuntu.
