iMacs Rev A/B are only Bondi Blue. Rev C/D had multiple colors (none of which were
Bondi). All of those have translucent ("frosted") cases and tray-loading
drives. If it has a TRANSPARENT case and a slot-loading CD drive, it's one of the
subsequent revisions (the DV/SE have FireWire, but I don't know of any other easy way
to identify them externally).

There's an iMac (CRT-based) turned up for sale locally with a white / clear pale-blue
case; is it safe to assume that it's either:
A first-generation (or first-gen rev C/D),
An iMac SL,
An iMac DV/SE
... i.e. Apple didn't offer that case style/color on any of the later systems, so
it's got to be one of the earlier ones from around 1999/2000?
