I'm saving up to get this. It's going to take so long though. 1300 bucks. And I can't get a job due to medical reasons, but I get 80 bucks every 3 months from the gov't and a 100 dollar cheque from the province.
I really want a mac. I'm tired of PC's and them always crashing and it coming installed with useless shit. Fucking Windows.
i agree with you..but ppl use windows for eveything when their primary function is being a personal computer. they use them as digital hubs when they arent!! imacs are for digital hubs. you dont nesecairly have to get the imac intel.. an Imac g5 would be good enough, they cost like 500
a computer usefullness has 2 do with ur actions. a mac is usefull as is a pc if what your doing can be done on that machine. i can surf the net on both but i just choose mac. i can edit photos on both but in the end i choose mac. why, i just like the feel of the os but both windows and mac are the same until you get down to serious things that the underbelly of each beast starts to show. even i know that some games work better on pc then on mac. but both machines r able to do the same things
Useful stuff but I think you need to organize your thoughts and actions before you record. There is a lot dead time, with you going "umm", it slows down the video.
dont... go to alienware and see what kind of system you get there for the price of an mac! than you can put os x on it if you want! but you will get an 15 times faster system, faster processor,more ram,more hdd,better graphic card even sli if you want! and you will get it cheaper than the mac!
i would.. the reason? GRAPHICS! you know the graphic card that macs are unable to take advantage of?... the thing is macs and games = 0 points... mac is however very stable for your data! but i love games and playing it on an 30 inch monitor with graphics cranked to ultrahigh with extreme shiny reflections and real physx stuff! when will a console be able to do that?
in what case? os x crashes and its unresponsive sometimes like vista! both have their problems!
if you come to productivity and games vista is better a HELL LOT BETTER! and if you come to data storage and simple stuff and a bit less crashes ill take os x...

basicly the main problem with macs is that[in greece] they are like 4 times more expensive than pc..oh and another huuuge problem is that you cant play games on macs ex.->crysis=not,tdu=not,ut3=not...anD if you want to upgrade it costs a looot of money[always talking about greece] so macs are for amateurs on computers....
And they're for people who are a lot into graphic design. Even before the return of Steve Jobs and way before the first Intel Macs were on the market, Macs were known to be the best for graphic designs and video editing.
@ttrerifsa1 actually, the myth that you can't game on a mac is total bullshit. Macs are for people who want their computer to do everything easy and fast.
iMac, 20-inch, 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Apple Wireless Keyboard (English) + Mac OS X Accessory kit 1GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM - 1x1GB iWork '08 preinstalled 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Apple wireless Mighty Mouse 500GB Serial ATA Drive or iMac 20-inch 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo 1GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM - 1x1GB Apple Mighty Mouse Accessory kit 320GB Serial ATA Drive Apple Keyboard (English) + Mac OS X
Of course man. Use Frostwire though, Limewire was hit by a lawsuit and they have major filtering on the system now.
There are some programs only available for Windows, but there are also many programs only available for Mac. I own all Macs, and never feel "left out." Besides, I run Boot Camp (Windows XP) anytime I want to... I just never need to...
Curious if you've put Leopard on it yet? I'm still running Panther on (what I call) a "Dome" iMac G4, 6 years old and only now is it getting cranky. LOL
im sorry but vista is one of the worst operating systems you can buy to run games some of them just wont work why dont you just save about £150 and buy windows xp
I used Vista at first for gaming, but then I decided to re-install XP and dualboot (Vista for Office appls and a few other things, XP for more casual stuff and playing), as my graphics were choppier than in XP, since the drivers for Vista sucked.
Nowadays, with my new Macbook Black, I'm using that one for Vista and Office and for using MacOS of course, while the PC I have will remain for gaming (though it's become a bit long in the tooth).
Can i do the boot camp on my imac to install the XP os , can i then use pro tools with my imac using the xp os, since pro tools harware and software work with XP, but not leopord?
Yes you can. When you install Windows on your Mac, you have the full windows and will run anything that Windows supports because it is Windows you want to install as I see.
Great. BUt when i tried to load the XP using boot camp. I was prompted to a blue screen which read "press enter to continue" I pressed entr on my mac keyboard and no signal was sent. It did not work. I tried the return button and then enter button on the numeric keypad.
this is what I mean. He had an IMac before and his older model Imac is not that much older. So if IMacs are such great computers, why do you have to buy a new one only after a few years. If your Old Imac was a PC, you would be still using it after a few upgrades.
steve, i went into the apple store to buy a macbook, but was instantly drawn to the imac. I'll list the benefits of the 1099 macbook to the 1199 imac. The imac has a dedicated graphics card, a large harddrive, and also a great screen and a superdrive. If you don't need a laptop, go for the iMac. The protection plan for the iMac is about 150 dollars less for the imac and doesn't cover falls on either. that should tell you something about quality.
great review. typing this on my iMac 20'. I would never go back to windows again. It is awesome. I went to the apple store to buy a macbook, and left with an iMac
im looking to buy a 24 incher with either a dual 2.4 ghz processor or the futureproof awesome-o- 2.8 ghz processor BUUUUT its january and there are alot of sales around and i could purchase myself a 40 inch samsung 1080p tv and a ps3 i cant decide which to purchase soo pls help me out and give me reasons that i should buy the mac because i know everything about them and....well i want the tv :S
I got mine on October 26th when Leopard was release. I got all the latest software. I switch from PC to mac and I have to say its a great machine. I've had no problems with it at all.
24"
2.4GHz
2GB RAM
500GB hard drive
For new buyers I would recommend getting the 2.4GHz 20" model at least. The 2.0 20" it a bit slower and will be harder to keep up to date in the future
Someone I know made the same mistake!! They rushed into it and bought a cheap Mac Mini, two months later - they reduced the price AND upgraded it. My advice is take your time, save up and reap the benefits of your patience.
So I'll be making the move to iMac (well I'm 80% sure 60% is for Logic 8) I'd just like to know about one thing that will bug me.
The Back and forth buttons (mouse.b 4&5) is there a function key I can press that will allow the same function with the Mac? You see I'm trying out Safari atm (since last week) and its just a little upsetting it doesn't recognise those mouse buttons, being I use the buttons alot for zooming back and forward on webpages.
Get an imac blahdabbadoo. You will never regret it. And Logic 8 is fantastic. I was never a huge fan of Logic 7, but 8.... It is just grand.
Also, if you do any type of video editing, final cut is equally fantastic. I learned pretty much everything in FCP within a week by editing a music video.
I would like to know, because I heard the Windows/MSN Messenger login sound stuff, is that the OS X one or the Windows one? And if it is the Windows one, what kind of programme do you use to run Windows on a mac? VMWare or Parallels?
Thanks in advance for yor reply! (:

PS: The vid is really nicely done, I like it how you talk about it quite naturally.
hiya i have a sony vaio ar 41L running vista and i hate it i am now selling it to by an imac 24 inch just 1 question how fast is the new imac on loading programs say itunes cos my laptop running vista takes about 10 secs thanks
Thanks for the video;gave me a good image of what the new iMac really is.I'm just buying myself one as soon as October!I just cannot wait to get that 24" monster!
I saw in 1st video you got Ram on your hand. Do you know if cheaper than apple adding 2 or 3 of ram by yourself? Its very expensive to ask for 4 ram. Thanks a lot.
Hey guys, please see my latest video, due to all the spamming comments will be cancelled for a week or so but PLEASE still continue to comment by messaging me, please dont be affraid to do this! thanks Danny
Thank you very much about the review it was really helpful. It really help me. I also would like to know some info about how noisy is it. Because I heard a high pitch noise at the video and i hope it came from you camera mic lol. Thanks a lot again!!!
I've got the 2.8GHz 24" iMac on order. I was a bit worried about reflections the glossy screen, but your 1st video shows it's not really anything to worry about.
you're right! I saw the pictures of the disassembled imac (they took off the screen with strong suction) and I saw two speakers. The sound leaks through the bottom I'm guessing through the vent slots/holes.
LOL, Just heard the ending... I can imagine watching the next video and you saying... "oops, now its a 4 parter" hehe ;-)
Keep it up tho, Can't want for Video 3! :-)
Also, another question about the keyboard... is it annoying to type on being so flat & not curved like the Apple Pro Keyboard...? I have that currently but I might be getting one of these soon so would be using the new one.
the keyboard, i find, is the same as my macbook pro keyboard, its at a very good angle for me and i love it, the keys are spread well enough apart for me. Update 3 is up by the way, check it out!

I got mine on October 26th when Leopard was release. I got all the latest software. I switch from PC to mac and I have to say its a great machine. I've had no problems with it at all.
24"
2.4GHz
2GB RAM
500GB hard drive
For new buyers I would recommend getting the 2.4GHz 20" model at least. The 2.0 20" it a bit slower and will be harder to keep up to date in the future

should i get a mac mini or save up for a iMac
xFYCNxcps22 4 years ago
Someone I know made the same mistake!! They rushed into it and bought a cheap Mac Mini, two months later - they reduced the price AND upgraded it. My advice is take your time, save up and reap the benefits of your patience.

I'd go for the iMac. The Mac Minis, for the most part, are crap. Or, at the very least, they are a hell of a lot worse than the iMacs.

i went into the apple store to buy a mini, and luckily I caught myself before i did. I ended up getting the imac, and im very glad i did

So I'll be making the move to iMac (well I'm 80% sure 60% is for Logic 8) I'd just like to know about one thing that will bug me.
The Back and forth buttons (mouse.b 4&5) is there a function key I can press that will allow the same function with the Mac? You see I'm trying out Safari atm (since last week) and its just a little upsetting it doesn't recognise those mouse buttons, being I use the buttons alot for zooming back and forward on webpages.

Get an imac blahdabbadoo. You will never regret it. And Logic 8 is fantastic. I was never a huge fan of Logic 7, but 8.... It is just grand.
Also, if you do any type of video editing, final cut is equally fantastic. I learned pretty much everything in FCP within a week by editing a music video.

Hey!
I would like to know, because I heard the Windows/MSN Messenger login sound stuff, is that the OS X one or the Windows one? And if it is the Windows one, what kind of programme do you use to run Windows on a mac? VMWare or Parallels?
Thanks in advance for yor reply! (:

Thank you very much about the review it was really helpful. It really help me. I also would like to know some info about how noisy is it. Because I heard a high pitch noise at the video and i hope it came from you camera mic lol. Thanks a lot again!!!

Good video. Thanks for the review.
I've got the 2.8GHz 24" iMac on order. I was a bit worried about reflections the glossy screen, but your 1st video shows it's not really anything to worry about.
geneticspecies 4 years ago
You serious about the speakers? Wouldn't it sound tinny through the aluminum? Why didn't they announce that upgrade?
slee8k 4 years ago
you're right! I saw the pictures of the disassembled imac (they took off the screen with strong suction) and I saw two speakers. The sound leaks through the bottom I'm guessing through the vent slots/holes.

Omg this video almost completely changed my mind! Dang, that keyboard looks so amazing.

The only problem with iMacs is that you have to throw away the screen when you get rid of the computer.

LOL, Just heard the ending... I can imagine watching the next video and you saying... "oops, now its a 4 parter" hehe ;-)
Keep it up tho, Can't want for Video 3! :-)
Also, another question about the keyboard... is it annoying to type on being so flat & not curved like the Apple Pro Keyboard...? I have that currently but I might be getting one of these soon so would be using the new one.
dbalexamiga 4 years ago
the keyboard, i find, is the same as my macbook pro keyboard, its at a very good angle for me and i love it, the keys are spread well enough apart for me. Update 3 is up by the way, check it out!
