iMac - Amazing
Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz - 20" TFT by
benpowell2008
Advantages: Speed, looks, ease of use.
Disadvantages: None
I bought my iMac as I my "PC" was due for replacement and had become unreliable. A few of my friends have iMacs and I was instantly grabbed by the design and ease of use when I sat in front of one. Some of this is due to the software that comes pre-loaded onto the iMac. I went for the 2GB version with the 2.66 Processor as the prices had just dropped. The iMac boots up lightening quick compared to my PC. In around 15 seconds I can be using the system ... ...is extremely clear and at 20 inch - large enough for most people to use as their home computer. I thought I would be keeping the PC to one side to use when the iMac didn't have the ability to do a certain job but I have thrown it away now as everything I need to do works. The beauty of the iMac is that it does exactly what you except. No fuss, first time - every time. It comes pre-loaded with the operating system and iLife08 which had iPhoto, iDVD ...

A Fantastic Server!
Review of HP ProLiant DL380 G5 Base - Dual-Core Xeon 5160 3 GHz by
andycharger
Advantages: Reliable, powerful, robust
Disadvantages: Im yet to find one. Maybe the hidden costs in addtional items.
...this way and using the HP Raid utility during setup (which is included) you can literally configure your drives to behave in any way possible. Whether its the redundancy of Raid 5 you want or the mirroring ability of Raid 1, this does it all.
PERFORMANCE
Out of this world. It is so stable and so quick to start up. Its like lightning. We use our server to offer additional protection to our virtualised servers. This means we have 3 or 4 software ... ...under warranty with HP and after calling their help desk it is a recognised problem and a new power supply will be with us tomorrow. I have also ordered a hot spare redundant power supply to slot into the spare power supply slot. This has cost £105 plus the shipping. ...

Very possitive Imac review
Review of Apple iMac Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz - 24" TFT by
teddy100
Advantages: There arnt harderly any wires
Disadvantages: There could be an update to 3.06GHZ
Where can i start with this product, its faultless in my eyes. Everything from the price to the design is amazing.
You get 2.4GHz which is pleanty for anyone using this at home, but could possible by auchward if you have lots of application open.
Also there is no mess at all unlike other desktop pcs as the imac only has one wire excluding the mouse and keyboard all of which you have the option of purchasing wirelesss ones. It saves all the frustration ...

I also got student discount and a free printer (via rebate) so it turned out about £680 for the whole package! =)
All from the Apple store themselves too!
Blooming marvellous - now upgraded to 3GB RAM, it works like a charm!
Definitely recommended! ...
