    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Size and functionality, good price

    Weaknesses: Not the most powerful system, MUST upgrade the included 256 MB RAM

    Overall Evaluation: Got this during the release of Tiger, a great OS. This is a very smooth system, and I really have not had any problems running anything with it.However, upgrading the RAM to at least 512 MB is a must. I grabbed a 1 GB stick, and it is pretty speedy now. The 1 GB upgrade is still pretty insanely priced from Apple I believe. It is rather annoying to get the case open, but not overly difficult.I would gladly recommend this system to anyone looking into getting a Mac. Its cheap (for a Mac) and powerful enough to get everyday stuff done quickly. I'm very impressed.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Compact yet powerful small package, easy set up, less vulnerability to viruses.

    Weaknesses: 256 RAM likely too small, not enough USB ports.

    Overall Evaluation: Overall, am very pleased with it. As a fairly competent PC user, I have had lots of negative experiences with PC crashes, re-installations, trouble-shooting, virus problems -- one after another. Yes, maybe there are more programs for the PC, but when you need it for basic/advanced web-surfing and programs of daily tasks, this is the best for you. Who needs an advanced PC with 200g HD, unless you do digital editing, high-speed gaming, etc? And, if that 200g crashes? I am a born-again Mac convert. Enough of PC problems.(!)
