Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz - 20" TFT

Great Computer, Great Art, Bad Software.

Advantages: Great operating system and all round computer
Disadvantages: not upgradeable, expensive, very professional system

...own right, as with all apple products they have spent long amounts of time designing their machine for functionality and fashion. overall it functions very well, its speed is above average for graphical tasks which would easily put stress on the average PC, its operating system is completely backup up by its hardware and over time macs don't age significantly like pc's The iMac has 3 USB ports on the back and 2 Built into its mighty keyboard, this ...
...luckily alternatives are avalible. Apple - the manufacturers will do a great job of supporting any problems you may find with your computer and will help you until your problem is sorted out. i would say this is vital in keeping customer respect as these computers are so expensive a bad manufacturer support would make the product much worse. Value for money is average, the decision you have to make is, do you like mac and do i find it easier than ...

Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz - 24" TFT

My Mac Mini :)

Advantages: Cheaper than iMac, looks really cool, is quiet (great for music production) and small, & Mac OS X!
Disadvantages: price (if you don't mind PC's), may get you hooked an Apple as I am and will take all your money

I am a big Apple fan and have had more ipods than you can shake a stick at, so when i started my music tech course at college and worked with macs everyday, I couldnt resist having a play with them in the Apple shop. Two jobs and 4 pay slips later, I ordered my Mac Mini! Initially I had looked at iMacs as they seemed to have a lot more feature than the base Mac Mini, but the price was a bit too much for me, so I opted for the 2ghz Mac Mini with 2gb ...
...complicated so I bought an Apple keyboard. Now, the Mac Mini... Straight out the box it worked like a dream. It comes with the VGA monitor, power adaptor, instructions and Apple remote. The mac runs very fast with all applications and I find if i am ever slowed down it is by my internet connection, not the mac! It comes built in with iLife and Leopard Mac OS X. Straight out the box I was able to do most things I wanted to do. There are some problems ...

Best computer ever!!

Advantages: Comes installed with iLife and Mac OS X Leopard, All-in-one computer

I cannot espress my joy for this product enough. It is beautifal sleek and easy to use. Made by Apple, Inc. it is truly a feat of engineering.

It comes installed with iLife witch includes, iMovie - Apple's movie editing software, iPhoto - Apple's photo managment and editing software, iTunes - Apple's music managment software used with their popular iPod and iPhone, and GarageBand - ...
...guitars. Whenyou considor that you can still install the ever popular Windows on a Mac, This is really the only computer you will ever need. Don't like Apple's own operating system? Fine! Just install Windows. Considoring that this computer comes with everything you need it really is much cheaper than the average PC. Overall I considor this a fantastic computer. ...

Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz - 24" TFT

A little gem, and quite a good specification for the price

Advantages: All in one form factor, easy connectivity, 'proper' keyboard and mouse
Disadvantages: No Wi Fi and restricted USB ports

...system altogether. Dell have every chance of having a winner on their hands though. There is possibly *one* reason why all-in-one systems haven’t caught on; whereas a mainstream desktop unit can be made of industry standard components (many of which can be supplied from a variety of sources) an all in one has to take the same design approach as a notebook; custom fabrication of the main parts, and have virtually no upgrade path without a complete ...
...be (unkindly) suggested that the Dell Inspiron One is a system for people who don’t like PCs. The base model system comes with a 2.2GHz/800MHz Intel Celeron 450 processor with 512k of cache, Windows 7 Home Premium, 3Gb of 800MHz DDR2 memory, a 320Gb SATA hard drive, Intel GMA x4500 graphics, an 18.5” widescreen, a wired keyboard and mouse, 16x DVD R/W drive, an internal webcam, built in speakers, and a reasonable software bundle. All for £399 plus ...
