What You Should Know about the iMac G5 M9250LLA Desktop

Compact Case Is Designed for Smaller Work Areas

This compact computer is smaller than the standard and midsize tower PCs that fit under your desk, making it ideal for limited work areas. Small case designs vary, too. However, such PCs tend to be underpowered (especially on gaming), and mini cases also have few available expansion slots and drive bays. Generally you'll have to expand the system via USB, FireWire, or eSATA peripherals, so make sure your compact system has a large number (and assortment) of ports.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Everything

    Weaknesses: None that I can find

    Overall Evaluation: I run into these PC dorks at work all the time. (see above) It seems to me there should be a place where PC users and Bush supporters could come together and really "connect" on their core beliefs as they both share a fundamental trait: DENIAL. Anyway, I just purchased an iMac 20" G5 and I LOVE it! I was very surprised at how easy everything went together and my internet connection was magically made after I entered just a tiny bit of info. The keyboard I'm typing on is so nice and comfortable- nothing like the 'Whack-A-Mole' PC keyboards I use at work. First thing I did was set up my email account and I couldn't believe how simple it was. Then I went to the iTunes Music store and Quickly! downloaded a new episode of Scrubs! Would I recommend this beautiful iMac? YES, Yes, and YES! Oh, and did I mention how easy it was to install the 1 gig ram stick and how easy it is to access the entire inner-workings of this machine: again, it's amazingly simple.

    Strengths: Compact design

    Weaknesses: Unexpandable, doesnt compare to windows

    Overall Evaluation: I found in this computer that it is compact. Although Mac OS wont ever compare with windows, they have made many improvements. I also own a 4 year old Gateway computer with 512mb ram, pentium 4, 1.6ghz processer, and i find that it runs MUCH smoother and faster. I can run Doom 3 on it, yet the mac has struggles with simple games. Plus the price on the mac is pathetic! I could have customized a Gateway with 2GB ram, ATI Graphics card, 250GB HDD for less than the price of this mac. I have been and still am concidering getting a new gateway after getting rid of this mac. I will never be a mac user. I suggest sticking to windows.
