Least reliable Mac I've ever owned

Date of Review:  Jan 4, 2005
Review: Recently got My iMac 20 inch 2Gb ram (pre installed) after 3 MONTH wait (yes 3 months). I got it out of the box & started it up. I was impressed "connect your old mac" I did this and ran my familiar looking desk top for all of 12 minutes. Screen...

Outstanding... when it isn't down for warranty service.

Date of Review:  Feb 23, 2005
The Bottom Line: Excellent software. No virus or spyware/adware problems whatsoever in my 5 months of use. If you experience hardware problems, warranty service is horrible (do not buy online.)
Review: For five months, this machine had been everything Apple claimed it was: Elegant, powerful, stable, and beautiful. Free of spyware/adware and viruses. Recently, the machine developed a serious video problem that rendered it completely useless. I...

Best computer value, We love this computer!

Date of Review:  Feb 28, 2005
Review: Purchased directly form Apple in November 2004, this Imac G5 1.8 with 1 GB RAM and wireless keyboard & mouse has been totally trouble-free. The Airport Express was easy to install and add to my small DSL-connected network. It comes with the best...

beautiful but unreliable

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2005
Review: I write this on a cheap pc laptop because my IMAC G5 is in for warranty repairs for the second time in its first 60 days. It had perpetual kernal panics and system crashes right out of the box. I was told by tech support that the problem was...

Finest computer I've ever used!

Date of Review:  Apr 4, 2005
The Bottom Line: Finest computer I've ever used. Very reliable, stable & fast. Great hardware design... and of course great looks!
Review: I've (very intensively) used the iMac G5 for over six months now... and I just love it. I can't help it, I really do.

As a graphic designer I ask a lot from any computer I work with. Most of of all I want a computer to be stable: it should...

Best iMac yet

Date of Review:  May 13, 2005
The Bottom Line: This is an excellent computer which handles all modern applications and looks great as well.
Review: The iMac G5 is my third Mac computer. I suppose one of the frustrations of owning a Macintosh is that the things rarely play up (I have never had a service call on any Macintosh computer yet), and the only reason that I have ever had to update is...

Outstanding bang for the buck

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: One at home, five at the office, all six flawless. I love this product!
Review: I took delivery of five identical 20" iMac G5s, 1.8GHZ and Superdrive. The only change from spec was to add 1GB to each machine. Since the intended user for the 5th machine left the company right before delivery, I had no choice but to take it as my...
