Review of Apple eMac PPC G4 700 MHz - 17" CRT by
Wilko2maxx
Advantages: Fast, No mess
Disadvantages: Design
As far as an Apple Mac goes this is good, it has A wicked processor (1Ghz Apple G4 is not the equivelent of a PIII 1Ghz, its actually around P4 2.4Ghz)
Our school uses these speedy Mac's, they are great for multitasking and can handle pretty much anything you can throw at it (Software wise!)
One of the things i do not like that much about Apples are their design and lack of ease of upgrade (Me being a die hard PC / Windows fan)
To me it is quite ... ...got awesome flat screen effects.
And one thing i coudn't help but add in this review is the awesome sound quality - we run Itunes and you can feel the thump of the bass whilst you cringe at the treble.
Here are some specs: (the cheap one)
Ram = 128mb upgradable to 1Gb Sd-Ram
CPU = 1Ghz G4 (1000Mhz)
HD = 40Gb
Display = 17inch flat crt
CD/DVD combo drive
Video = 7500 Radeon 32Mb AGP 4*
OS = Mac OS X (number 10)
PORTS: 2 Firewire ports, 3 ...

eMac Heaven
Review of Apple eMac PPC G4 700 MHz - 17" CRT by
robbie190975
Advantages: All in one design
Disadvantages: A little bulky
Ok, firstly, for all you non switchers, you have to understand that this mac maybe a little on the bulky side by todays mac standards, but there is a reason for it. The guts of the computer is actually inside the monitor unit. No more storing the tower underneath the desk where it gets kicked all the time, this machine keeps it all in one place. So as you can see where it takes up a little more room on your desk top, it actually increases the amount ... ...actual eMac. I consider the emac machine to be the most reliable and sterdy of all macs. This machine will do everything you want it to and more, from producing your everyday apps such as Word / Excel / Powerpoint (Office is an extra) to ripping DVD's with its all new superdrive (in selected models). With a 1.5 Ghz G4 Processor and 80 gig hard drive as standard this emac is all you need to cope with nessecary stuff. I personally own an emac and find ...

Disadvantages: using SD RAM, Processor speed is less
This product is from very good company which have quality and style in their product. It si good money saver and space saver. But for Techies it is not so much of use bcaz it is using SD Ram and less speed processor , but for childeren this one is avery good option and people have less space and want to use for some homepurposes it is very reliable and complete value for money.
This product include everything which you want in your PC and it give ... ...sale services which one is very good from apple. You can use it to make a small home network as it consists of ethernet card and I t consits of Combo drive by which you can read and write Cd and can read DVD. So we can say that this product is very good for home users and childerens, but not suitable for those who want to program in using some hevy softwares like MAYA etc.
I recommend this product for homes and for small bussiness purposes and in ...

Emac - a Fruity little number!
Review of Apple eMac PPC G4 800 MHz - 17" CRT by
steveash
Advantages: Looks great, works great, doesn't crash.
Disadvantages: Pretty but badly designed mouse. That's it!
...and straight forward.
Using Apple computers every day for work and pleasure I never tire of their simple, well thought out design. I bought my eMac when I left my job and started up business on my own. I am a grphic designer and already had an older G3 Mac but needed something up to date but not too expensive. The eMac fitted the bill perfectly. The monitor is big and sharp enough to work with and the processor is fast enough for anything bar high ... ...to be dropped from the Apple range after the introduction of the tiny, similarly spec'ed, sans-monitor Mac Mini.The computer manufacturers continue to make faster machines but really I can't see the benefits outweighing the costs for me to upgrade. The eMac is fast enough for most professional and consumer users. So... get yourself a cheap stock clearance eMac, pop in some extra memory, ditch the mouse for a Microsoft Explorer or Logitech MX and ...

Cheap Starter Computer - Go Buy ONE!
Review of Apple eMac PPC G4 800 MHz - 17" CRT by
shaun200202
Advantages: Cheap, Very Compact - No Tower
Disadvantages: Poor Screen Quality, Difficult to upgrade
...usual standard of the original apple mac. I do some graphics work and it doesn't allow you to increse the resolution high enough.
Macs are very user friendly when it comes to installing programs or setiing up broadband conections, things are 100x easier to do on a mac everything happens in the background. where with a PC you need to do allot of fiddling, restarting, (pulling your hair out) to get it to work.
If you want to play allot of computer ... ...computer games that are releasd are MAC compatible, you'd be better off with a PC.
But theyre great for just surfing the NET, and checking your EMAILS.
I bought my Emac from a shop in Edinburgh called Scotsys, it is a Mac only shop so they know what they are talking about. They also have shops in Glasgow and bellshill. Another place where you can by macs is from John lewis, they always have a good stock.
I got my emac for £699 which was the Super ...
