Mac mini -- desktop in a very small size.
Review of Apple Mac mini Core Duo 1.83 GHz by jattdesi

Advantages: very small size, affordable, space saving an easy to assemble
Disadvantages: is not upgradable in performance

Apple mac mini is not a laptop. It is more for home use which makes it more like desktop. Apple Mac Mini is great----- why? Price is not to much and is worth more than you pay. when you buy a mac you have to make sure your own needs. Because it different than windows. Apple has provided us a new product that is elegant, useful and affordable. Apple products are very expensive but mac mini is useful and affordable. It is great choice for variety ... Read review

My new IMAC
Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 1.83 GHz - 17" TFT by jermiez

Advantages: Compact, Stylish, Value for money
Disadvantages: A little slow when opening up a number of programs at one go

Since my Toshiba M30 harddisk broke down, I decided to go for an iMac as i had been craving for one for ages!!! As a first timer using Macs, I found the controls and mouse foreign BUT it was really easy to pick it up and I found that it was so easy to open a few programs, switch to multiple views and select which one you wanted to see. An easy example would be switching between 3 webpages where you can view all 3 pages and select the one that had ...
...a fair number of programs such as word, safaris and adium, it took awhile for loading. Also, the graphic is not exactly fantastic for those art users or gamings although it is enough to view movies and meddle around. If speed is of great importance though, you can always just upgrade your ram as you buy the computer because there is only 1 ram slot. For the value, I would say this is an all round Mac with the latest technology to suit most people ... Read review

My dream mini
Review of Apple Mac mini Core Duo 1.66 GHz by screwcap

Advantages: Speed, looks, size, silence, availability of applications.
Disadvantages: None (except the keyboard and mouse, but you don't have to buy them).

...years ago. I used the Apple educational online store, with free delivery and really good telephone customer service (although it takes a while for the phone to be answered). Being used to regular blue screens of death, to the system slowing down to a halt almost everytime I had more than 3 or 4 applications running, or if I watched a couple of videos on You Tube, to not being able to watch DVDs for fear of crashing the system and all that, it's ...
...the Might Mouse and the Apple keyboard to go with it. I only did because the Apple store in Regent St was the most convenient to reach at the time I realised I couldn't use my old mouse and keyboard (not USB), but I really regret spending that sort of money (about £50 for both of them) for something that you can't take apart nor clean. The mouse has already lost some of its functionality after only 4 months of use, possibly due to dust gathered from ... Read review

A beautifully designed workhorse
Review of Apple Power Mac G5 - PPC G5 2 GHz by intelligents

Advantages: fast, powerful, upgradable, easy to use,
Disadvantages: big and heavy to get it home!

...looks great. I purchased an Apple 20" screen to match - i'm a firm believer in matching underwear! Set up couldn't be easier, thats the beauty of the Apple system. For any PC users reading this, wondering whether to switch or not - go down to your local Apple dealer and try it. Thats the only way you'll know whether its for you or not. The G5 processors (x2) make this computer excellent for multitasking e.g. if you've got more than one application ...
...computer will perform brilliantly. Though Apple now use Intel processors, this computer is still a powerful work horse. Plus i can still install the latest operating systems without the need to upgrade. Thats the beauty of spending a bit more on a computer - it will keep its age better. The RAM supplied is sufficient for everyday use, but 1GB-2GB would make this computer blisteringly fast. Apple are known for being a touch stingy with supplied RAM. ... Read review

Mac Mini, Basic offering packs a mighty punch!
Review of Apple Mac mini PPC G4 1.25 GHz by philglen

Advantages: Small, Well Equipped & Affordable
Disadvantages: You have to get used to a new Operating System

The most basic of the Apple Mac family, all I can say is WOW! I am a Web Developer and had to do some Mac testing, so bought the cheapest Mac Option at £399, it sat on the shelf unopened for 3 months then one day I needed it. I opened the box, and rigged it all up. To cut a long story short, I now use the Mac Mini as my main computer as it is still far superior to my £1000+ PC equivalent. To sum up the product, it is small and beautiful, yet still ... Read review
