Apple does it right every time [Posted on 2007-05-31]
This computer is so sexy and slim, very few wires needed. The computer itself is contained in the lower part of the screen. No need for a huge tower to put on the floor and hook a hundred wires to. OS X is beautiful, and ultra powerful.
MS tried to imitate some of the look and feel with the latest windowz release, and now is offering a program to make windowz even more like OS X (the buttons and etc.. are imitated) they have it on their website for a beta download right now. I guess the boys at redmond are concerned about the number of people buying this particular item?
The bottom line is this is what a computer should be, the keyboard is so sexy it probably should be rated R. The only complaint I have is with the mighty mouse, it's very hard for the mouse to distinguish between a left and right click, but with the beauty and power of this system I can live with it.
Just the thing for mom... (or dad, or yourself...) [Posted on 2007-06-08]
Continuing the excellent iMac line - getting better all the time. Easy to set up. Easy to use. Reliable. Quick. Elegant. Buy one - you know you want to.
The only thing I can say against it is that I preferred the whimsical styling of the previous "table lamp" design.
If you personally find a 17" screen to be small by today's standards, try the 20", it's a nice step up. The 24" is beautiful, but it is just absurdly large...
Better than a PC, but not great. [Posted on 2007-07-30]
As a computer novice and recent Mac convert I was dissapointed in the fact that this product is not as user friendly as it would appear in their advertisements. It can be almost as frustrating as trying to figure things out on a PC. What I do like about this product: looks great, it's compact (the CPU is built into the display), and it's fast. If you are thinking about making the switch from a PC you may want to go to one of the Apple stores and do a test drive first. One last thing, if you are comfortable using a PC mouse, then get ready for some frustration, as this one takes some getting used to.
Great Customer Service [Posted on 2007-11-30]
This 17-inch iMac was the perfect size for me and was not available in many places. It was delivered within days, perfectly packed and when I had reason to speak to a Techno customer rep, Andre was very helpful.
Good and cheap [Posted on 2007-12-02]
