A great system

Date of Review:  Nov 7, 2004
The Bottom Line: A great system, worth the money.
Review: I've been using a flat-panel iMac since the 17 inch G4 model came out 2 years ago, and was starting to get a bit frustrated with the screen size & mediocre CPU speed, so when the new G5 iMacs were announced I knew I'd be upgrading. I placed an order...

Best iMac yet

Date of Review:  May 13, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is an excellent computer which handles all modern applications and looks great as well.
Review: The iMac G5 is my third Mac computer. I suppose one of the frustrations of owning a Macintosh is that the things rarely play up (I have never had a service call on any Macintosh computer yet), and the only reason that I have ever had to update is...

New iMAC GREAT!

Date of Review:  Nov 29, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you are tired of messing around with Windows security flaws then this machine is a must. It does cost a little more but then no Windows headaches.
Review: I just converted from a PC based world to a new iMAC G5 and I'm never going back. I won't go into all the detail already discussed in the previous 2 reviews but I will say that it is worth the extra money to go for a MAC.

I love its utter...

iMac G5 20"

Date of Review:  Dec 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: Get a Mac. Easy to use. Safe to use. A computer you can trust.
Review: This is my first Macintosh computer. I switched from Windows XP and could not be happier. We bought the 20" model with 1GB of RAM and 160GB HDD. I was concerned about software before I bought it but did my research and found everything I would need...

Outstanding bang for the buck

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: One at home, five at the office, all six flawless. I love this product!
Review: I took delivery of five identical 20" iMac G5s, 1.8GHZ and Superdrive. The only change from spec was to add 1GB to each machine. Since the intended user for the 5th machine left the company right before delivery, I had no choice but to take it as my...

Sleek is the word

Date of Review:  Nov 24, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you like it get it. Just get more RAM, I mean it. Every iMac released has been great and a highmark of iconic product design.
Review: My 400 MHz Sawtooth G4 was nearing the end of it's life as a professional machine. It got to the point where I was procrastinating editing video projects or updating my portfolio and website. Some of this was due to it's aging specs and some was due...

Failed MidPlane Assembly

Date of Review:  Mar 8, 2005
Review: Bought the iMac G5 on 10-14-04 after using HP PC for 8 years. New computer to be used primarily to convert VHS to DVD. Screen went crazy 2-20-05 and died. Delivered to repair center on 2-2 and was told it would be repaired (hopefully) in 3-5 days...

Best computer value, We love this computer!

Date of Review:  Feb 28, 2005
Review: Purchased directly form Apple in November 2004, this Imac G5 1.8 with 1 GB RAM and wireless keyboard & mouse has been totally trouble-free. The Airport Express was easy to install and add to my small DSL-connected network. It comes with the best...

Outstanding... when it isn't down for warranty service.

Date of Review:  Feb 23, 2005
The Bottom Line: Excellent software. No virus or spyware/adware problems whatsoever in my 5 months of use. If you experience hardware problems, warranty service is horrible (do not buy online.)
Review: For five months, this machine had been everything Apple claimed it was: Elegant, powerful, stable, and beautiful. Free of spyware/adware and viruses. Recently, the machine developed a serious video problem that rendered it completely useless. I...

Great buy, all in one computer, super value!

Date of Review:  Mar 17, 2005
Review: Ease of set-up and use cannot be beat. It's quick and capable, and the superdrive is a great option. The built in software is great. 100% uptime, no downtime. Screen is quite attractive and can display significant amounts of data. Machine at work...
