Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description
The iMac may be the epitome of a home system or entry-level multimedia desktop. This model, in a deep-blue translucent color that Apple calls "indigo," offers a 500 MHz processor, 128 MB of RAM, and a CD-ROM drive, all housed in an integrated case with a 15-inch display. Additionally, the system has a 20 GB hard disk drive, an ATI Rage 128 Ultra graphics card, a 56K modem, and a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface. Both the classic Mac OS 9 and the slick new Mac OS X ship with the system.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love my little iMac!, July 29, 2002

By	skunktrain (So. California, USA) - See all my reviews

I got this iMac a few months ago, and it has never given me a moment's trouble. Well, sure, there have been a few software difficulties (old scanner software that made the iMac burp) but the iMac itself has been solid. And wonderful.

It's fast, it's quiet, and it's agreeable. Installing hardware is almost always a breeze and everything seems to work right without much troubleshooting. The few times I've had some software trouble, a quick visit to a Mac fix-it site told me what I needed to do to resolve the problem.

I come from the Wintel side, and while I think PCs have their strengths, nothing is quite as sublime (as far as I am concerned) as a nice Macintosh computer. It is reliable and stable. It runs Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and all my other "arty" graphics apps beautifully. The screen is clear and bright. The built-in speakers sound pretty darn good. I haven't even bothered to hook up external speakers (though some people probably would prefer to have them).

The price is right. It's so inexpensive, you can afford to get a lot of extra RAM added-something I heartily recommend. (I have a total of 768 megs, which is quite wonderful!) I had the shop add my RAM, but I have been told that adding RAM to these models of iMacs is very easy, even for the newbie.

I love my little iMac!
