@Luigiplushfan I would spend those extra buck$ and get the 27 as I use mine for watching movies and photos. My next iMac will be that of the larger screen. Apart from that it's been a damn fantastic computer:-)
@Jacky977997 It's almost two years now since I found my box of chocolates and in that time not once has my iMac let me down NOT ONCE!!!! I have not one bad thing to say about it and it's still fast as the day I bought it:-) You will love it, Merry Christmas:-)
@Nuclear793 I'm glad it works for you and no offence to you but, and a big BUT, the reason why I have a Mac is b/c I never want anything Windows or Microsoft infesting my household again! I have more than I need from Apple:-) btw I have used Win7 and it's a vast improvement especially from that Vista crap!
@pman590 Well I can't remember anymore but I did put a disc in to do something but I know for sure it was so damn simple to set up about 10 minutes I think. Re-boot what's that? LOL this is not windows you know:-) Ps had this for over a year and never had to restart or never had a problem in the slightest :-))))))
@ndonnelly883 No worries, you've got 883 in you title and 883 reminds me of the Harley Davidson XL883 that was all. Question would you or could you use windows again? Nearly had mine a year and it's never crashed or missed behaved well worth the dosh I say:-)
@Thermoman69691 oryt na its just a random number like .. No i will never go windows again this computer as never crashed or failed me yet and so far not even a trace of a virus windows has failed me so many times in the past .. Mac is perfect for all my work as well never fails or leaves me waiting for anything like Mac ftw deffo worth the cash
@gtofreak16 Question is "do you want to transport it and use it while on the go?" For me bigger screen is nicer for the eyes! I had a laptop and only used it once while on the go so it's not worth it for me. Could get the iMac and the iPad and your two worlds are sorted but that comes with a price or just beg your parents lol
@riccardofiorilla Just checkout the apple website for prices will be the same I would think. The screen reflections will not be an issue I use it to watch movies from a distance and just have a desk light next to the screen on and it's fantastic.
@georgeyboy13 I'm going to get one and the price for the 21.5 in that's in this video here in the Americas the price is $1,199 which is not really that expensive for a good quality computer like this one!:)
"My hands are shaking... the excitement!" LOL, I think that'll be me when I finally save up enough money to buy one... being 14 and saving up for an iMac isn't easy. Especially when we have like £100 extra to pay than in America, I converted the American price from $ to £ and it turned out to be about £800.
I feel your excitement, I just ordered my 27". This year has been the year of Apple for me. Macbook Pro, iMac Quad Core, iPad, etc (: They're all great!
@hellob0x Yeah I'm the same after getting my 3Gs I was just hooked for apple. My last buy was their router AirPort extreme and it's another fine apple product! iPad could be my next buy but will wait for the new O.S. 4 as multitasking is all I'm missing. Now enjoy that excitment too :-)
@Thermoman69691 does the iMac 21" have a good online graphics for gaming because i buyed so many Pc's with high graphic but it Slowed down the game and Lagged so can you help me out with this please
@1aliengin1 imac is the best gaming expierience in mac but the truth is mac is not supported 5 star for games. what i meant is it is not good for playing games it is good only on apps which does not use alot of memory of the cpu. like garageband, itunes, safari, etc
VERY NICE VIDEO! I can honestly say that this video made me smile and giggle like you! I could sense your excitement; my friend told me that's how I'm going to be when I get mine! And I keep hearing the same thing over and over: "You will never go back! You won't regret it!" I too have the dilemma of getting either the 21½ inch or the 27 inch, but by the time I've saved my money for it, I should have already made up my mind. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS! And congratulations.
@soberdrunk78 Thanks for your comment :-) check out my iMac review after 3 weeks video! The 27" is bigger than my house so I settled for the 21.5" Which ever one you choose you will not regret it! A few of my friends now use iMac and just use the pc for gaming only.
Thermoman69691 this question goes to you... Why did you choose the iMac? Because I'm hanging between the MacBook Pro and the iMac 21.5" just like you did . Please tell me what were the reasons.
@Slayer; Why did I get the iMac over Book? #1 How often do you transport a laptop outside? For maybe twice a year? #2 The iMac takes less space on the desk. #3 The 21.5" screen is HD and big enough to become a second TV #4 Bluetooth keyboard&mouse. #5 cheaper. The Macbook is fantastic but is wasted if you don't transport it. The iMac is easy to transport room to room only a power cable to unplug! For me, bigger screen for everyday is a BIG plus. No regrets with my iMac:-))))
I'm using a relatively small screen now. I went to the Apple store and the 27 seemed too huge, almost like a TV! But most people swear its the best. What's your opinion? Is bigger really better?
I can't say what to buy that's down to what your needs. I can only say what I've read and what my opinions are. Ask yourself what you need the iMac mainly for? The 27.5" has better specs, faster, screen can outperform anything on the market and speakers are louder. With the 27.5" screen it will become a second TV (is that a bad thing) and if you like making movies than it will run better. My needs are not so high so the 21.5" specs are more than perfect and transporting room to room is easy.
I have heard this problem about a high frequency noise and I can only say that my iMac has no such problem. I have looked into this and it's probably only needs a software update. I have had a recent update and maybe the solution was there??????
I just bought the base model for $1099 with the educational discount. Awesome deal for the best desktop on the market. In fact, if it had a means of folding in half you could use it as a portable.
If the iMac could fold in half comment was sort of what I was thinking. I almost went for a Macbook Pro just so I can transport it around my house. Now the new iMac just needs the power cable and rest is Bluetooth, how easy is that to move around. P.s. Are you into Ferrari's or is that your real name?
I plan on getting one after christmas. What do you think of it now after a few weeks? I plan on getting the lower end 21.5" one and have never used an Apple computer before...how easy is it to transfer all my data and photos?
'It looks so shiny' :) why yes, it does *my precious*
Very easy to transfer data and especially photos to the iMac. After a day your become more familiar with macs OS. Don't think windows anymore think what would you put where and if by magic your find it. Think easy is what I do:-) Have you a iPhone? Checkout my review after 3weeks and see just a few of my thoughts. P.s. I wouldn't say lower end as all of Apple computers are sublime some have more just to suit greater needs. You will never want to go back windows really really!
Thanks for the great review. Can't wait to get one of these! It would be interesting to see a video about your thoughts, after using it for a few days :)
Glad you enjoyed my vid. I will post another vid on which I will give my opion on the iMac. Problem is this is my first Mac and I need a little more time as I keep finding new things out, apple don't do a book called "OS X for Dummies :-) Have done some iMovies check out my latest vid of the Ferrari I've just done and tell me:-)
I don't know is my honest answer but it's good enough for webcam and passport photo's. The color is very good, bright and works in poor light to. I'm very happy with it indeed:-)
You shouldn't say might be getting, you either do or don't, I would say yes do get it as it's your birthday. Hope your birthday is soon LOL :-) The base model still seems like a Bentley!
Thanks for your comment. You will have no regrets getting very bad boy indeed. So simple to use and very quick to. This is my first Mac and I just think back to the days of using windows, windows is so retarded and so needy all the time. Your gonna be giddy for weeks and don't forget to sleep :-) Enjoy that giddiness :-)
@Luigiplushfan I would spend those extra buck$ and get the 27 as I use mine for watching movies and photos. My next iMac will be that of the larger screen. Apart from that it's been a damn fantastic computer:-)
