800MHz G4 iMac, the kind with the hemisphere base and the monitor on a stalk.

Here's the EveryMac.com spec. page:

http://everymac.com/systems/apple/imac/specs/imac_800_fp_macosx.html

Fancy-ass Apple matched speakers (they actually sound pretty good)
1024x768 monitor and external monitor port
1GB RAM (stock was 256M)
80GB hard drive (stock was 60GB)
DVD-ROM/CD-rw drive
Two FireWire 400 ports
Three USB ports
Fresh install of OS 10.4.11 with its updates I don't believe 10.5 will run on it, but I'm not totaly sure about that.
Original disks when I pick them up from my father
Photoshop 7
Illustrator 10
Office 2004
A wicked lot of fonts.
Apple keyboard
Apple mighty mouse (the kind with a cord, not the wireless one)
Ethernet (100 Base-T)
*no* wireless or bluetooth, if you want networking, you have to plug it in.

I just replaced my father's machine, so this one is "extra". I've opened it up and blown out all the dust and crud that it's collected over the last 8 years.

This machine is not a powerhouse, but it still works just fine, it's powerful enough to write a book or do 99.9% of anything anyone really needs to do with a computer. It'll probably get wedged and slow down on modern YouTube videos that use excessive compression, and some websites that are more concerned with presentation than content might behave slowly. But for actually doing stuff that isn't better described as "play", it's more than adequate. The Hitchiker's Guide was writen on a machine 1/10 the power.
