Very Disappointed with the IMAC [Posted on 2002-11-15] We purchased an IMAC for it's supposed amazing digital photo and DVD capabilities. We were very disappointed. iPhoto has crashed twice. We have lost entire folders of photos. Simple children's games screwed up settings and contiminated preference lists. It has never been the same after a simple upgrade. Would not recommend this one to anyone.
iMac is solid again [Posted on 2002-11-21] The new iMacs offer a stylish choice of desktop computer. They are much faster than the old color iMacs. The LCD Monitor is sharp and crisp with a wide viewing angle. Like all Macs, it is easy to use, and the operating system crashes far far less than any PC system out there (I use PCs at work, trust me). OSX is a bonus as well, a good operating system, but you can still run older (classic) programs. The iMac has been poo-pooed by some "power users" as being cliche. Trust me, you can be a power user on one of these. It's faster than most users will ever need, has plenty of RAM and hard drive, and is easily upgradable. My only quibble is the sound - I recommend the inexpensive external speakers if you listen to music or play games. I also have not found a convenient way to input music from my stereo into the iMac (no Microphone jack) to record my old LPs onto CD. Still, worthy of a 5 star, as I am sure the sound input problem will be solvable through the USB port or some other technique in the near future.
