Hello, I'm new here.
I bought an old iMac G3 at a recycle shop in Japan just because I like the design.
I'm new to apple but I would like to make it work with an English OS that I found, and also to get to understand Apple.
9.0.3 (on disk, for DV Models).
Erased the Japanese OS (8.5)and when click install the 9.0.3, a message comes up; " your Mac's firmware is out of date. updates can be found in the CD Extras folder on your Mac OS CD".
maybe I'm stupid but I can't seem to find it on the OS CD in Extras Folder at all.
Please somebody give me advice.

BTW. I went to Best Denki today to look at the new iBook 13.1 inc, it's a beauty but expensive, Jap Yen 114.800. But the salesman showed me that it is BILINGUAL. maybe this will be my first laptop afterall.

But first I would like to find uot more about Apple.

Thanks.
