[xxcandyxandyxx]

I downloaded the adobe master collection on my PC not too long ago, is it possible to transfer the programs onto a mac ? is that possible ?

[MrJake0604]

@xxcandyxandyxx if you call adobe they might help you

[Jwilliams745able]

Im getting mine on friday. Do i need to hook up my router right next to it or can i use my wireless adapter

[MrJake0604]

@Jwilliams745able iMac has a wifi card built in

[BrodieMagill]

Hi, jake quick question, have u made alot of money making your own apps?

[moneyman2j]

Cool u live in MD

[carsguy890]

thank you this really convinced me to get this model

[fameboyish]

will a i mac run games like diablo 3 and starcraft 2 on high

[zitzong]

Really liked your review of the iMac.

[puchaks]

how does it run with Lion OS X? I'm getting one at the end of the month and I've also heard rumors about an iMac 2012, I'm thing about putting it off for the moment, but I really want one so bad.....

[sw33tstuff36]

3 words. I. Want. This.

[Djazeiry]

as you said buddy the 21.5" look huge in the desktop ....i was going to chose the 27" but now i'll take the 21.5" it enough for me :)

[MrAkuheiRyoku]

I got a question, is there a wire to plug into the mac so I can get internet? or do I need a wireless router, ALSO for the speakers, do they transmit wireless or do they plus into the mac?

[Djazeiry]

@MrAkuheiRyoku for the internet you can use it Lan adapter just like your pc

[mczacify]

should i get mac mini 2.5 ghz or this

[jaypineda9]

[AldossariEOS]

I got a customized 21.5 iMac;

2.8GHz Quad-Core (8-processors) Intel Core i7.

8GB 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM.

1TB Serial ATA Hard Disk Drive.

AMD Radeon HD 6770M 512MB GDDR5.

[MrJake0604]

@AldossariEOS a quad core processor is one processor split into 4 cores

there is no iMac that sells with 8 processors or an 8-core processor

[AldossariEOS]

@MrJake0604 I'm not sure because in Boot Camp Win7 it appears there's 8 processors i7. I might be wrong because I think that's how Turbo Boost works after figuring that out somehow. any idea?

[vmelikian]

@MrJake0604 but the i7 supports hyperthreading which makes it look like an 8 core proccesser but phisically , it has 4 cores

[ImageJPEG]

@MrJake0604 He might be counting logical cores (hyperthreading).

[Th3C0dR4p3r]

@AldossariEOS is this computer that u have good enough for gaming 1080p mw3?

[AldossariEOS]

@Th3C0dR4p3r It's more than enough my friend, it's very very very fast, however it's customized as I ordered which is not default, but even as default it might be more than enough, not just enough.

[Th3C0dR4p3rHD]

@AldossariEOS awesome! Thank you:)

[AldossariEOS]

@Th3C0dR4p3rHD No problem mate, also forgot to tell u that I play mw3 with highest settings such as anti-aliasing, resolution & even shadows, not only mw3 but also bc2 & b3.

[MrJake0604]

@JACKwDAVIDSON it's not a Mac pro its a powermac G5 which is old and a lot cheaper

[JACKwDAVIDSON]

why are Americans so rich?

[MrJake0604]

@JACKwDAVIDSON im not rich at all, i just save my money and sell my old stuff

[JACKwDAVIDSON]

@MrJake0604 how much old stuff do you need to sell to buy a macbook pro, a iMac, a iphone and a mac pro?

[RMDgaming1]

@MrJake0604 how can i get a imac quicker because i really want one what should i sell

[MiamisDog]

When you write 'IMac' like this, it looks like shit! You gotta write it like ' iMac '

[FlyFlippers]

@MrJake0604 I have a regular unibody MacBook and I am wondering if I should sell it and get an iMac? I also make videos (which you can see on my channel) so I would be doing a lot of editing. Would you recommend me getting one?

[jaysley]

Good review, thanks

[TheGamingMoose]

how could you afford this when your 14 so lucky im 15 and i really want this imac as my macbook overheats when i record minecraft and its quite annoying :/ if this was half as much as 999 i could probably get it but its not :(

[wackojacko883]

you are rather knowlegable

[ZackyTay]

thanks for the review its very helpful !

[elliotnicklin]

My bad you did say later on.

[elliotnicklin]

Looking into an iMac 21.5" inch also, bottom of the rage at £1000 has better benchmark results than the bottom of the range MacBook Pro at £1000. Is this the 2.5 or 2.7 Ghz model?

[AKULA9586]

ok i'm 16! and i just got imac 21.5 inch! I didn't bought imac just because to play some games! I'm going to make an app! If you familiar with xcode, please pm me.. We can make ton's of money, that way we can say thank you to our parents! :D

[MrJake0604]

@AKULA9586 I am already an app developer

google "jake lebovic apps." without the quotes

[Computergamz]

will big games like wow work well with this mac

[BoredLikeHellTV]

@Computergamz they will work better than they do on a PC coming from lvl92 warlock who playes on PC and iMac

[Computergamz]

@BoredLikeHellTV 92? highest lvl is 85 :D

[Computergamz]

@Computergamz but thanks :)

[BoredLikeHellTV]

@Computergamz check again with the new expansion

[CRYOmine]

so, my friend, what do you think they are gonna put in the 2012 models? :)

[MrJake0604]

@CRYOmine Id probably say the ivy bridge processors but still stick with i5's and i7's.

[ferreirabruno1995]

where did you get the money to buy it?

[BenjaminWoltman]

my girl thinks my 21.5 inch is also big enough

[gaming03]

Should i get the 21.5 2.5ghz or the 2.7ghz

I play counter strike and edit videos but dont have much money

[CRYOmine]

@gaming03 get the 2.8 ghz.

[Galaxygamestorm]

Guys don't buy this worthless shit just get a Dell XPS 3800. Reasons.

1. It only cost $899.99

2.This mac is a i5 processor and costs over 1k your only playing $900 for a i7processor!

3.It's a i7 processor for great a price.

4.Better for running high hardcore game such as Battlefield3. Skyrim, so on.....

5.Fairly to say Dell XPS 8300 is just better.

People buy what you want but if you really choose this 1k i5 MAC over a $900 i7 DELL that is just pure ignorance

[Str4ightUpL4zy5]

@Galaxygamestorm jelly much?

[Galaxygamestorm]

@Str4ightUpL4zy5 Peanut butter.

[Str4ightUpL4zy5]

@Galaxygamestorm im bread :D

[Galaxygamestorm]

@Str4ightUpL4zy5 We go together

[Str4ightUpL4zy5]

@Galaxygamestorm im not sure what to say to that if you know what i mean

[GudAllay]

@Galaxygamestorm ye but does it make pankakes?...... ALSO the imac is a quad core processor, your pc is probably only a dual core!

[codeythesilent]

8:45

[codeythesilent]

It's OS TEN! Not "ex"! there was OS 8, OS 9, and now OS X! Fucking rich kids >_>

[ddos411]

@GuiacmeLinkinPark yes you can

[arterioes]

Are imacs upgradeable? Like 2 years from now if I want to change the processor, hard drive or graphics card? I know that the RAM can be upgraded easily.

[aaronsmith171298]

Aperture like on portal

[reedyboy1000]

Will this run minecraft on far and fancy graphics ?

[mopy001]

@reedyboy1000 lol u serious?! BF3 runs just fine... so minecraft surely runs epic ;)

[BlackOakStudios]

It can run... apeture? Apeture Science???

[TheBryceallen]

compared to my 2006 pc ... this mac is lightning fast... ALOT

[D1ngD0ng1214]

Can it run high demand fps games like Battlefield 3 and Crysis 2?

[MrJake0604]

@D1ngD0ng1214 Battlefield 3 runs fine, i haven't tried crysis 2.

[superf611]

@MrJake0604 i'm thinking about buy it but before that would you play any game that required good specs like battlefield 3 and upload the video please... i just wanna save money but at the same time i wanna get it so bad

[CipheredGamer]

@MrJake0604 Does that include MW3 running fine?

[MrJake0604]

@enverjusuf your point?

[MrPenguinPerson]

But will it blend...?

[ipodliljackson]

SUBSCRIBED! i couldnt find out if the mac could change the viewing angle but you finally showed it to me.

[MJ199720]

[getitboard]

Not sure if you are reading this comment, but this is one of the best reviews I saw of imac so far. Try to get a better camera for future videos, Good luck bro!

[MrJake0604]

@getitboard Thanks

[waysidemonkey12]

maryland wooo

[joze1245]

Damn. He has 3 macs, an iPhone 4 and an iPod touch and he's only 14

[MrJake0604]

@joze1245 Some of these videos are older

Correction: I have 2 Macs, and iPhone 4S, and an iPad 2

[CoolCreep4176]

@MrJake0604 I envy you so much! btw, Great vid! 

[MPu3000official]

@MrJake0604 ok, but i am 12, and i have iMac and thats all

[shnunk1]

@joze1245 When people have jobs, they tend to be able to buy a lot of apple stuff. I have a Mac mini, iPad 2 and an iPhone 4S. I'm planning on buying an iMac pretty soon, and I'm only 16.

[ScottieGetsMoney]

@shnunk1 cool story bro

[shnunk1]

@ScottieGetsMoney Yes, it is a cool story.

[11cola]

@shnunk1 You must have a rich daddy, huh?

[shnunk1]

@11cola Actually, no, I bought them all myself. It's amazing when a 17 year old can earn more than fully grown adults. I work at McDonald's in my spare time and make more than fully grown adults working in the same sector in the US.

How I love Australia.

[CipheredGamer]

@shnunk1 I'm only 13 and I just bought an iMac with my own money. Took me quite a while since I've only been doing chores around the house and a paper-round.

[shnunk1]

@CipheredGamer Good work, mate :)

[TheDivineAdvocate]

@shnunk1 same, I'm 16 with a MBA 13" 2011, iMac 27" 2011, iPhone 4s 64gb + iPad 2 64gb :] although i don't have a job :/

[MrJake0604]

[DubuqueRS]

[starwars4525]

i have a macbook air as a school/primary computer now, do you think the iMac is a good computer for a primary and gaming computer because my mac only has 4gb ram and 120 gb SDD?

[clarence569]

He sounds like a salesman

[iSachin1996]

[972Trucker]

Good review thanks I think I going to pick one up very soon.

[Ric1242]

[minecraftslug459]

not to be mean or anything but you seem a bit spoiled. unless you paid for the macbook and iphone yourself

[DENJCA29]

@minecraftslug459 Why do you care if he bought it himself or not? Are you being a hater? If you have a problem with it, sounds like a personal problem.

[ArthurHovak]

[Diegobellamy]

[PivotalPlatypus]

It's obviously gonna feel big when you have it on a fucking nightstand...

[MrJake0604]

[PivotalPlatypus]

@MrJake0604 I bet.

[wambamram]

i really want to buy this unit, but then the MacBook Pro is what is keeping me from doing it. :o I'm in a pickle.

[GeekTechBE]

@MrJake0604

hey rally liked your review.

i have a question for you

is that the entry lvl iMac or the second ?

and are you running lion on it?

does it run good because i have the 15" mac pro 2011 and sometimes in lion it freese when I'm running final cut and photoshop

and when it was still running leopard i did not have that

anyway thanks

[MrJake0604]

@GeekTechBE This is the entry level and everything runs fine on it.

I assume when you say 15"mac pro you mean macbook pro because the mac pro is a desktop.
