Good Workhorse Mac.......2004-11-10
Difficult to Use If You're Used to a Windows Machine.......2003-11-16
I had a custom built Windows mutt at home and found using an Apple to be a bit of a challenge because the shortcut codes I was used to using didn't work.
However, after about a week, I was proficient in both. Even though I use primarily an HP Pavilion at home, I can use the Apple computers we have at our college newspaper office pretty well, with only having to ask for help occasionally.

Additionally, the system has 20 GB hard disk drive, an ATI Rage 128 Ultra graphics card, 56K modem, and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface. Both the classic Mac OS 9 and the slick new Mac OS X ship with the system.Customer Reviews:
great computer - but.......2007-09-10
Macintosh Counterface.......2004-07-05
Great Little Computer!.......2004-06-05
It does everything I ask it to and didn't even brake the bank. Mine cam equiped with a 500MHz G3, 40GB HDD, 256mb pc100 sdram, 16mb ATI Rage 128 Ultra AGP 2x, and a Combo Drive (normally this model comes with a CDRW).
I burn all my cd's, watch tons of DVDs, run Mac OS 9.2.2 and Mac OS 10.3.x perfectly fine and play some older games (I'm not a fan of most new games, but love the older ones like Quake 1,2,3, Unreal and AvP!).
Mac OS X runs great, which I was very surprised about. I also run Adobe Photoshop 7 and Office X on this machine and it does it all very well.
Perfectly happy with this machine and I'm sure that when I go to upgrade again I will keep this one around for odd jobs.
BAD Computer.......2004-01-14
Take a bite..........2003-11-14
So, when the Indiana Literacy Foundation needed to upgrade their out-of-date Macs, we ordered iMacs. These are fast machines (we got the 500MHz variety) that are easy to learn and easy to set up. They connected with no problem to our Ethernet network which ran the printers and the internet connection. The office runs primarily on MS Office and a 4D shared database; the iMacs performed marvelously in these tasks, too.
The biggest drawback would have to be the lack of ports (they really do need to have at least one more UBS port); and there needs to be a disk drive -- hard to transport data to off-network (or, when the network is down, no-network) computers; but perhaps the most user-conscious problem lies with the mouse and keyboard. The mouse is round, it slips to easily under the hand; the keyboard is small (feels cramped to use) and doesn't tilt up enough.
However, these iMacs have served the Foundation well for a few years, and everyone was aglow with happiness (having been released from bondage to PowerMac 6100 slow pokes).
Ah yes, we got the blueberry kind (because they were on sale).

good machine.......2002-04-19
Mac makes a comeback (or two)!.......2002-02-25
When it came time to buy me another computer for college, I thought this entry-level iMac would be perfect, and I was right!
Mac OS X is incredible. Not only is it simple and aesthetically pleasing, but it's also remarkably efficient as well. Instead of a cluttered desktop, simply drag the stuff you would normally have there into the dock and presto! you have a nice clean desktop and one location for all the programs and documents you need.
Digital imaging has also never been easier. I briefly had an inexpensive digital camera, and instead of all the hassle of installing the software to just download all the images into the computer, I just plugged it into the USB port and let my Mac do the rest!
As in the past, the selection of readily-available games leaves A LOT to be desired. But most of these can be purchased online (like right here at amazon.com!) But don't expect to go to your local computer store and find aisles and aisles of games for Mac...
I've had my new iMac for about 2 months now, and I have absolutely no regrets!

I love my little iMac!.......2002-07-30
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!

A Great CPU-Screw Clock-Speed!.......2002-05-16
Ahem, back on subject. The 500-Mhz iMac is sort of the same as the Performa (but it's not beige-yippee!) It may not have incredibly fast clock speed, the latest hard drive, or the biggest screen, but for entry-level, and even maybe mild business, the iMac come through. It works hard, supports a GB of RAM, and can store movies, AND Mp3 tunes, AND documents, AND games, AND applications of all sorts and run fine. Only under very severe stress does the iMac up and quit. I've had mine for a year and a half now, and it has never, EVER failed me. It has always pulled through, and deserves that sacred spot next to the ol' Performa. Not to mention it looks cool. If you want a Mac, the iMac is a viable solution.
