Can it run both Mac OS's?
I have a iMac and installed OSX tiger on it today and was wondering if it would still run Mac OS9 safely
that is all, was running Mac OSX 10.2.8, now running 10.4.11
Is this a good question?

10.4.11 is the highest system this iMac will take and it will run classic. You don't lose classic capability till 10.5. I would upgrade the RAM to the maximum of 1 GB. Here's how to get into the machine: iMac G4 17 800 MHz EMC 1936 Battery Replacement

If I remember correctly you can "run Classic" in order to use applications (but networking and some audio (MIDI) can no longer access the OS X ports) and some machines would not boot to it if you have 10.4x since you have a non-intel machine you might still be able to boot into classic.
