Apple iMac Desktop 15" M8535LL/B (800MHz PowerPC G4, 256MB RAM, 60GB HDD, DVD-RW/CD-RW drive)

I don't know how many nights I've simply stepped away, let the Energy Saver sleep the monitor and the machine, and come back in the morning and check my email int the near instant my iMac wakes up--with no crashes, wierd problems (that plagued OS 9 and Windows).

Why people choose to ignore the Mac, or make judgements without thoroughly investigating computing is beyond me.

Why in the world would anyone want the hassle of Windoze when you can have an art piece like this? I guess some people like self abuse. A truly wonderful computer.

I have been a PC user for years. I even work for a software company that only runs PC's. I finally made the switch and love the new iMac. I will start with the only negative since that list is so short. I wish I would have bought the 17 inch. That was my choice, not the computers. I had the machine up and running in minutes. I had it sharing an internet connection with my three PC's in a few more minutes. I was importing digital pictures from my camera next. All of this in less than 30 minutes. I then hooked up my printer and printed some pictures. Just like the ad's say, I never loaded any drivers, had any crashes or any other problems. A great screen, fast processor and easy to use. I will be burning my first DVD later today so stay tuned or should I say ituned....


Awesome - best desktop computer ever   November 24, 2002

This is the first Mac that I have ever owned, although years ago I used them at work. After using this for a few months I could never return to the land of Windows computing. Last night I installed Microsoft Office v.X on the computer in 5 minutes! No restarting either! Compare that to your Pentium 4 running Windows XP - you will be lucky if you can install MS Office in 1 hour and 2 restarts.

These computers don't crash and work right out of the box. There is some adjustment necessary to deal with the different interface, but within a matter of hours you will be productive and happy with your new iMac. I liked it so much in fact that I also acquired a Powerbook to take with me on business trips.....
