For those looking for an informed opinion, let me just give you a little of my background experience with the Scenic. I run a network which has 500 Scenic workstations. The network is spread over three sites and these workstations have rarely been switched off in four years. Good Points: The Scenic is robust and hard working. In the four years using the Scenic only 5 have failed. The simple and straight forward architecture makes repair and upgrade ...
...We have the Pentium II 400 and Pentium III 500 versions and all have problems with caching times. This has largely been put down to the low Wattage power supply. Also there have been a high number of functionality problems with the Matrox Graphic Adapters. Overall the Scenic is a relyable computer. If you are looking for a no frills working computer then this computer is ok. However if you are looking for a computer for any graphical work, the Scenic ... Read review

I have purchased Siemens Senic 500 PC on line through Jungle.com about 7 months ago. Within two months time period, it started giving trouble and getting chocked at its own will. Apart from other difficulties being faced one major problem was that it was not accepting installation of other softwares on it. I contacted the jungle.com and reported the poor performance of the PC and they replied that they are no more responsibile for the system and ...
...the manufacturers and their reply was quite amazing. They told that they would charge extra money for sending their Engineer for the inspection. The replacement of any par would also be my responsibility. I have to change the mother board and the whole system with an extra money. I would never recommend the system to any of my friend. I would also like to convince my friends not to purchase any PC on line specially through jungle.com They are the ... Read review

...were released. As soon as Apple released the updated Mac Pro in January, I picked one up. After using the iMac for so long, the Mac Pro was like a breath of fresh air. This machine is crazy fast. I loaded 10 GB of RAM into it and can pretty much have all my design apps open (mainly CS3) as well as run Parallels at the same time. I could never do this with the iMac. Overall, I'd recommend the Mac Pro to design professionals looking to run lots of ...
...You'll have to deal with the strange rebooting problem I mentioned above but I don't think it's a deal breaker. I've gotten around this by either shutting my machine down when I'm gone for long periods of time or setting the sleep cycle to never. It's not a great solution (I can't save electricity this way) but I think it's worth it for the power of this machine. ... Read review

We got chatting about the dog (as we also have a Cavalier) and the conversation inevitable turn the his computer which happened to be an iMac 2.4GHz, 24" Core 2 Duo model being used for photography and graphics. The gentleman showed me ...
...me that I should give up my Windows PC and to switch to MAC for my main uses of photo and video. If I was really stuck, I was told that Mac could run any Windows programmes I needed on it. My main intention was to leave the Windows PC for day to day use, and use the MAC PC for hobbies only - more of that later. However, a few weeks later, after looking at reviews and seeing the machine again, I took the plunge and bought the iMac - a decision I ... Read review
