Using a windows xp pc can I clone a imac g3 osx 4gig drive to a 40 gig ide drive?
I don't know if you can do it within Windows XP directly. What you're looking to do is perform a disk clone, which will do a bit-by-bit copy of the original disk to the destination disk. Personally I don't do much with MacOS, but ren's Boot CD has some excellent disk utilities that could allow you to perform this copy.
Norton Ghost might wor, I've used it to clone Linux and other proprietary HDs before. Now, once you've got the disk duplicated, you'll probably want to use the extra capacity on that disk, and that's where my knowledge of MacOS fall short. You have two options, expand the existing partition using some custom software, or create a 2nd partition using the new disk space and mount that as a "second" disk within macos.
Really, if you could re-install the OS on the new disk, that'd probably save you a lot of the effort from the second part. :-).
Your iMac can be reinstalled in about an hour. Just put your documents on a usb stick and replace the harddrive and then reinstall using your OS X discs. Takes a lot less time than cloning.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
