Review of the New iMac 27-inch, 3.06 GHz intel (Fall 2009)

[manuelntu]

i have this, and ill tell you, this video looks like CRAP on full screen mode on it...

[club1909]

Imagine Porn on that.. :)

[purpleflurper]

this video was filmed with a potato.

[VictorMario82]

No bit to win one?

[7ABIBIintaalbi]

thank you for making my imac have to play 240p. i threw up a little.

[SteveLvideos]

240p we meet again !

[Mande1brot]

Did I hear right? This thing has 'better than HD' resolution but doesn't run a blueray ? WTF??

[caryhartline]

Haha, people only buy PCs because they are poor or think that an easily virus-infected and no-style-at-all computer is so much better. Think about this. Have you ever seen a Speed Up My Mac commercial?

[Titanz91]

@caryhartline So, now "we're" making fun of poor people? Well hey, guess what, not everyone can spend 4 figures on a computer, dude. Enough with the snobbishness. 2nd, NOT everyone likes Apples style. We (Yes, I do) may like it, but not everyone's the same. 3rdly, Mac OS X can get viruses, too. OS X isn't impervious, there just aren't as many viruses made for it because it's not the majority OS (Windows is). 4th, the Apple commercials can be outright unfair and just stupid in some cases.

[z3r006]

@caryhartline you are a complete idiot. People buy pc because they can completely customize it to their liking and we aren't talking about dell or anything. They can piece it together themselves and build something twice the power of your damn mac at half the cost moron. Be more open minded, mac's have style and what not but when it comes to pure power pcs kick ass anyday.

[VoxHumor]

It defies reason that the USB ports & audio ports are on the back of the iMac. Not only is it inconvenient to access the ports, but it makes it more likely that users will leave cables connected to the iMac, so as not to need to struggle to reconnect the cables, over and over again. Thus, cables will constantly clutter the work space of this supposedly streamlined computer. What's the point of wireless mouse & keyboard when there will be so many cables dangling from the back of this computer?

[iHeartKawasaki]

Honestly, If I were going to shell out $1600 for a luxury.. I would either:

#1: Get a RMZ250

#2: Custom build a Hackintosh that would make that 27in iMac look like bawls.

Never the less, slick iMac

[zerotonico]

this is like a have a big ass girlfriend

[karen10163]

like wht the fuck i love it om its so beautiful honst i bought mines today worth alot of cash but worth it lol

[snapperslayer41]

Yeah I can see you in the reflection there on the monitor that's how incredible iMac's display is.. sarcasm

Fucking glossy display

[RealSkyDiver2]

240p? seriously??

[Imnotoldenough]

@RealSkyDiver2 It's because he uploaded it using a PC.

[MonarchyTheLegend]

nice computer, shitty video quality

[Asifa741]

@JJCtheBeast First I'm A girl and second i think u're mad cuz i already have a imac and it's the best. It Never Gets A virus And I Have a pc too ok. My mother is a Computer Engineer And Father Is A Scientist.

[supercooled]

You know a generation or two before this one they used that black plastic backing which in my opinoin looked better. Like they say black gives the illusion of thinness; with this new silver finish the back looks bulbous otherwise it's a stunning machine. I'm thinking of getting one even though I have a Mac Pro and a 30" setup.

[TheRedDash]

Macs can run windows you idiot. Oh and that "u can build one cheaper and more powerful" is pure bull shit. Macs can do anything a pc can you jackasses. 80 percent of pcs are breakable pieces of crap from home depot lol Mac - Pc

[tilxGH]

Why PC people hate Macs:

*can't customize

*graphics cards suck dick for gaming (they just put a moble GPU in the 2011 iMac... seriously wtf?)

*You're only paying for OSX in Macs; anyone can custom build a better PC with twice the power for half the price.

*made for hipsters.

Why Mac users hate on PC:

*OSX has training wheels for everything under the sun, so Windows 7 and Linux scare them.

Get the picture? :)

[matumandus]

@tilxGH Why PC people really hate Macs:

*They have no style (PCers)

*They have an old Nokia (PCers)

*Mac owners have life

*They are all jealous (PCers)

*Mac owners can have sex.

Why MAC users hate on PC:

*They lies about MACS (PCers)

*PCs have more fans.

Get the Boner? :)

[tilxGH]

@matumandus

yeeee buddy, you got a towel?

[matumandus]

@tilxGH no, but i got sock..is it okay? :)

[tilxGH]

@matumandus

[fasilee]

[hackerfreebiejeebies]

/watch?v=pr6IOHWSKXs

[LavonteR]

if you think this is over priced your just used to shitty pc's you have to pay for quality

[BrutalNightmares]

you should have used the iMac to create this video, because this is some ugly quality.. but eh.. still like it..... ! :)

[mewimi]

Overpriced, Overpriced, Overpriced. That is all I hear out of his mouth :P

[BindingBrickStudios]

The graphic quality on an iMac is 110% better than this video's.

[shurtugalchrispy]

'240p, must have just been uploaded'

*looks at upload date*

'well damn...'

[13579Winter]

i want to get something straight, macs are good, pcs are good, linux sucks

as far as a pc can go the operating system is fine but some hardware companies like dell make the pc look bad, Toshiba and HP make great computers

Im not a mac, or a PC, I'm an open minded person, all the mac versus PC war does is cause fighting, neither are perfect, why not go hate on linux

[eruptoin]

@13579Winter LINUX ROCKS!

lol jk...

[ArmoredSaint848]

OMG i can't believe it , im watching iMac on my new 27" iMac, this is incredible

[GamerzCreed02]

What ??? The specs are all in the monitor ??!! How does that not overheat ???

[R13V]

@GamerzCreed02 Because they are not a PC.

[MegaDeathwarrant]

i wish imac would support 3d :(

[PolishedDesignsHD]

I mean come on, if you think thats macs are the only good pc's then look at dell. You can get an amd phenom II x6 , 12gb ram, 1tb (7200rpm) Hard drive, and a 24" monitor for just over a thousand (pounds) ....for an i7 imac, with 4 gb ram standard and a 27" screen your looking at 1.6k lol, and if you wanted a bigger screen then you could go buy a 27 inch or a 32? ;)

[shufflemaster58]

Yep



[TheTyParker]

Hey if anyone is interested I am selling my iMac 27'' i5 Core LED with 8MB of L3 Cache and 4Gigs of RAM blah blah blah.

[KortezNike]

[XC0MB4TXEV0LV3D]

Thinking about getting one of these could anyone tell me if they like it?

[usamaki10]

imagine watching a 240p youtube video (like this one) in fullscreen on that monitor

LOL

[TheArceus12345]

The 27inch one is HUGE! (that's what she said)

[Bahzad23]

[JessicatheMustache]

@Bahzad23 LOL watching free porn at the apple store

[orozco545]

@Bahzad23 AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH­HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH­AH HOLY SHITS THATS FUNNY!!

[AlexanderrrL]

The mouse is gorgeous but looks uncomfortable.

[OpticXnation]

@AlexanderrrL Not really.... it's really slim and helpful

[Asifa741]

imac is best then the pc. My PC always gets viruses every 1 years and sometimes in every month and imac does NOT get viruses :)

[JJCtheBeast]

@Asifa741 That sir, is because your mental capability cannot grasp how to use a PC.

[ranzdy101]

now thats what i call high definition!! ;D

[DarrenMalla]

so the hardware is in that monitor?

[MONTYNESSFUL]

i hate douche bags who think there cool bc they try to convince us pc is better when we all know Mac is the best....yeah maybe pc is okay for gaming but hell just by a freaking xbox or ps3 for gods sake nobody plays pc games anymore...so go to gamestop by a ps3 with black ops or xbox...and have your self a ball on a GAME SYSTEM not a computer

[seraphimh7]

Imacs are destroying dv cameras  this is A warning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MONTYNESSFUL]

i cant wait for christmas i kills me to stare at a box under a tree knowing a 27 inch imac is in it...thats like...the worst pain ever

[CraigGordonSpace]

@MONTYNESSFUL i feel your pain

[MONTYNESSFUL]

@CraigGordonSpace you have the same problem?:(

[CraigGordonSpace]

@MONTYNESSFUL yep it hurts

[CraigGordonSpace]

@MONTYNESSFUL its to good to resist

[MONTYNESSFUL]

@CraigGordonSpace i know gosh this sucks

[CraigGordonSpace]

@MONTYNESSFUL ive been looking at reviews , unboxings , tricks tips , things to do when you get a mac videos for about a month .. im bleeding from the eyes.

[MONTYNESSFUL]

@CraigGordonSpace DUDE SAME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!! its killing me!!!! 2 more weeks and a day !!!!!!!!!!! we can do this but every day i look at what to do reviews tricks photobooth stuff magic mouse crap!! omg it kills me

[CraigGordonSpace]

@MONTYNESSFUL yeh i about to go over my monthly limit of space because im watching so many videos about it ... i end up watching the same video like 20 times over 20 days haha . and today i just watched all of soldieryknowsbest videos he does some really good ones

[MONTYNESSFUL]

@CraigGordonSpace hahahahaha cool! I've watched pretty much every video that has "27 inch iMac review" in it!

[ultimatetoturial56]

[MONTYNESSFUL]

@ultimatetoturial56 k

[Calgary713]

REALLY? Well some people like Mac some like PC i guess, but the PC I was using sucked

[Jumpster2525]

WAIIIT Do Imacs have Hdmi Ports

[SuckerBullet]

@Jumpster2525 nope.

[britishmariobros]

@Jumpster2525 Only the mac mini

[mininananana]

Where have I been

So computers have built in hard drives wehay.

[ChickenVendetta]

Once you go Mac, you never go back.

[xxsladedethxx]

could i use logitech usb keyboard an mouse with an imac? sorry im just not likeing the imac mouses an keyboards.

[officialDCWchannel]

OMGosh I would do nothing but kill to get this. I'm using windows vista, YUCK!!!!!! >:O

haha

[Calgary713]

@officialDCWchannel I am using XP even worse...

[officialDCWchannel]

@Calgary713, True.

[Calgary713]

@officialDCWchannel But u probably want an iMac same amount as me, and iMac is like a taste of heaven when u hav used windows/PC all ur life

[officialDCWchannel]

@Calgary713, lol probably

[Fatal548]

@Calgary713 Dude you have no idea how big the change for me was xD

I was using this old, Windows 98 computer for about 2 years before getting the iMac xD and its amazing..

[Calgary713]

@Fatal548 That sucks its a big jump for anyone using windows or PC

[Fatal548]

@Calgary713 Yeah. Snow Leopard is just plain awesome.

[Calgary713]

@Fatal548 :D Yay Mac!

[Natebeats]

@Calgary713 Clearly you haven't seen my pc :)

[Calgary713]

@Natebeats Can we all agree that PC sucks unless it is worth a billion dollars

[Natebeats]

@Calgary713 Not sure what you mean, The mac pro is slower than my pc and costs more....

[plokkkkkkk]

@Calgary713 by billion dollars you mean same amount of money as mac costs?

[Calgary713]

@plokkkkkkk Maybe PC doesnt cost that alone but after all the damn repairs and new harddrives it cost a lot, and iMac had it all in one and it is HD and looks good

[plokkkkkkk]

@Calgary713 repairs and new harddrives? what the hell are you talking about

[Calgary713]

@plokkkkkkk My PC had atleast 5 repairs a year, and Mac doesn't get stupid viruses

[plokkkkkkk]

@Calgary713 um my pc is 2 years old and has had no viruses or repairs so yeah... and it cost only 1650$

[Calgary713]

@plokkkkkkk *cough* *cough* lies *cough* *cough*

[plokkkkkkk]

@Calgary713 um no?

[Calgary713]

@plokkkkkkk um ya?

[Goldspar1]

@Calgary713 your stupid enough it you acutlly think mac does not get viruses.

Also, why does your pc need so many repairs, are you running a intel celeron or something?

[Calgary713]

@Goldspar1 do u even hav a mac??? It gets like a virus evry 30 years, and my PC is XP and old thats y!

[ceterafan123]

@Calgary713 No!

[using192]

@Calgary713 for that money u have a hardcore gaming rig with screen with a operation system were you do more with then a apple one!

[Calgary713]

@using192 With crappy graphics, a slow processer, and gets loads of viruses still

[using192]

@Calgary713 lol not amd 955 twice as fast as that slow c2d hd 5770 directx11 thriple as fast and virus will geth apple allot more becouse there are more users so there will geth more virusses for apple ! and yes there are virusses for apple but not that many

[Calgary713]

@using192 and how much is that additional to the price

[using192]

@Calgary713 imac 27 inch 1700 euros 21.5 inch 1200 euros!

mine pc 900 euros inc 22inch monitor! and windows 7 key

[Calgary713]

@using192 :P well my PC was crappy so I had the worst experience and I like Mac cuz u can hav normal day to day stuff and u can hav games, with PC its either gaming or day to day usage. And the style of the Mac looks nicer than most PC moniters

[stephon972]

@Calgary713 the only thing that makes this not true is that its your opinion and its all about what u like

[Calgary713]

@stephon972 Same thing with u its just opinion

[PolishedDesignsHD]

@Calgary713 Well that's not true..You can get a sony vaio laptop with an i7, 8gb, good graphics card, blue ray etc.. for much less than a macbook. Heard of dell? xps 8100 i7, 8gb/12gb ram..sorted.. Im not saying that macs are bad, but what you just said was nonsense.

[enorma29]

@Calgary713 Agreed. and since with mac there's no option (it ALWAYS costs a billion dollars), thats another reason to choose Linux.

[Calgary713]

@enorma29 Mac only costs 12,000 and its display is way better

[LazyCrazyClown]

@Calgary713

>Macs cost only 12,000

>cost only 12,000

>only 12,000

Well it's nice to know you're just another Rich Retard who thinks the highest price always delivers the highest quality. I built a PC that can run Crysis 2 smoothly for only $950+shipping tax. I also have a 42" HDTV that my PC can hook up to since my Graphics card has an HDMI out. I'd like to see a Mac with those technical capabilities for that price that low.

[KixuFox]

@LazyCrazyClown

*Ahem*

pretty sure he meant to say 1,200. XD

[wtfMrMuh]

@Calgary713 actually a mac is more expensive than a pc.

[MegaSwebster]

@wtfMrMuh no shit.....

[takishan]

@Calgary713 No, we can't. You're an apple fan boy. PC is better for gaming and everything else. Unless you're a licensed photoshop/graphics designer, you don't need a mac. My computer is 700$, built it myself with parts I ordered online, and is better than any mac on the market. Macs are much more expensive, reaching into the thousands, and my PC is just plain better.

[Titanz91]

@takishan Macs are fine for gaming. Just install Windows on it and you have a pretty damn decent gaming machine. It wouldn't be the most powerful thing in the world, but it can play games. Also, there's nothing about OS X that says it can't do games as good as Windows, it's just that publishers simply aren't making their games for OS X.

[EniMiniMarsiMo]

does anyone know when theres going to be a new imac generation?

cause its already a year, since the last came out....

[chilled99]

@EniMiniMarsiMo The new gen is already out really all quad i5s and i7s. Wait til next year for an update

[EniMiniMarsiMo]

@chilled99 thank you...

and when did this gen (i5 and i7) came out ?

summer 10?

[madjamie16]

@EniMiniMarsiMo yup

[jeremysc123]

@EniMiniMarsiMo most likely in june...

[elvin149]

ati 4670 ? I have 5850 with windows 7

[marcusthecool]

That shit's huuge

[robertdevald]

1:45 Fingerprints...

Brrr, i hate it so much!

Not the iMac but the fingerprints.

[deathkiller43]

if you have the new 21 inch imac ( i think thats the lowest on) can you use the imac as a display for the mac pro?

[xmath167]

@deathkiller43 no you can't

[deathkiller43]

@xmath167 oh ok thanks for the help

[LentejOfficial]

@deathkiller43 YEEEEESSSS !!!

[KraftWerkSLO]

The mouse in much "sharper" on the edges. You and your fingers have to get use to this. I also like that there is no scroll button - which stop working in a year!. I am getting hard to get use to keyboard. I think the buttons more squeezed together. So the buttons are not where they are supposed to be :)

[KraftWerkSLO]

I got mine :). I sell 24" (two years old) for 950 EURos

[bierbuik]

@KraftWerkSLO haha u must be mad, no-one iwll pay that for 2 year old second hand, second best iMac

[aLbotTV]

im watching this on that right now

[iandangerfield]

why the crap keyboard?

[googoo120]

@Blessthetalon

If you did your research you would know that it is actually not overpriced, other allinone PC models cost hundreds more. It is true that apple uses high quality parts making it more valuable than your average plastic Dell computer, but that doesn't equate to overpricing. You also have to consider that you are paying for the OS, which only comes is macs.

[TalesOfWar]

@googoo120 I tried pricing up a tower system with the same hardware (or as close as possible considering they use some custom bits like the logicboard). It cost more than the iMac and that wasn't even including any of the software (ie no OS). So yep, you're right, these things are brilliant value for what they are.

[Howyoudodat48]

still not bigger than my dick..

[lightspeedkiller]

is it better if its a 3.06 GHz cause i thought that was a frequency

[SamMahrous]

Horrible review. Get a new guy.

[Junije1]

I want....I just....I WANT TO MAKE LOVE WITH THAT iMac....  :x

[TheBestCashiPhone]

I went mac and never went back :0

[EliTeCreaTiionz]

Bob Marley for president!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thumbs down if u agree

[iConstanta]

THEY ARE BLUETOOTH NOT WIRELESS !!!!!

[CassettePlaya1]

@iConstanta ....Yes and Bluetooth allows what?....wireless transmittion to give it wireless connectivity from the device to the iMac...durr

[danmiddleton7893]

@iConstanta Yeah they are Bluetooth connections to the iMac but there technically wireless from there erm LACK OF WIRES

[Pacoliciouss]

@Ledzep896 imac def

[FreeappleTube]

I would love an imac, freebieipone 4 on my channel!

[blessthetalon]

macs are so gay

[randomism]

@blessthetalon how are they gay?

[blessthetalon]

@randomism over price 4 what u get and

[randomism]

@blessthetalon and...??? If your going to be a mac hater, be my guest i dont care. Just dont be a typical person whos like "macs are so gay" or "mac sucks", be a little more direct and to the point if your going to state something like that, or if you dont even know anything of computers then you have no reason of even saying any computer is gay. Oh and With the iMac being "overpriced" in your case is a personal problem, not a technical problem. Hell they are pricey but you get what you pay for.

[CKSpoiler]

@megodgast free imacs for everyone that votes

[megodgast]

@CKSpoiler

i vote :D

[TheNiliPerson]

The wireless features are really bad. The battery only lasts a few months and it's a hassle taking the batteries out and buying new ones or recharging them. You want something straight forward that doesn't need worrying about. I've also tried out the magic mouse and it's very flat which makes it quite uncomfortable especially if you're going to use the computer for a long period of time.

I'm just going to stick with the wired keyboard and mouse.

[TalesOfWar]

@TheNiliPerson Hold it correctly then. It's not supposed to be "grasped" like traditional mice, it's supposed to be "clawed". It's that flat so the touch gestures are comfortable to use. It takes a little getting used to but when you work out how to hold it properly it's as comfortable as any other mouse.

[ledzep896]

is an iMac good for recording music in a home studio? or should i get a Mac Pro instead?

[itsmeeeeeeeeeee]

Damn thing is a mirror. Steve Jobs says you dont need matte screen. People say - ok we will change!

[ieatyellow]

@itsmeeeeeeeeeee yeah i dont get why they use glass...i still want one though! lol

[TalesOfWar]

@ieatyellow Glass is easy to recycle and makes the display more durable and resistant to scratches and so on. It also makes the colours more vibrant.

[ACDC185]

i purchased a mac pro two months ago for my business and i was insane the price that i paid! Steve jobs better be happy! The final cost to it was $11,963.95!

[vRemxon]

They are way too much money, I mean if you think about it it's only a computer for Internet searching it's not worth £1000 or whatever.

[Rbagio]

@vRemxon

Nah not true. I ordered a pc with more or less the same specs and a 27 inch monitor and a new keyboard and mouse. it didn't make any difference in price.

When you buy an imac one month before the new imac.... so 7 months after release: Yes then it will be to expansice cause Apple don't lower their price till the new line

[abidan2006]

@vRemxon LOL. its wayy more than just that. you must understand nothing of computers if u say that.

[HenTodolo]

@vRemxon its for games too lol

[Lucasmillen123]

mine was 1999.95

[zionx4]

Damn that thing's a monster!

[rayo1988]

Noob, bout to buy my first  Mac question?

What sound card does the iMac 27 come with? does it come with decent one?

[MrGentlemanne]

lol yes im buying mah self a New iMac 27-inch :D

[CelticReap]

macs looks nice and all but overpriced but if it was little bit down i would switch :D

[Avataryoutuification]

My pc has the 4670 so i'm staying away from this mac.

I want one with a 5970 and I7. :)
