1 out of 5 stars A Freezer.......2006-05-23

I work for the Gov't (NASA). We purchased this computer in July of 2005. Since then, it has frozen roughly 25-30 times. The person who writes that OS X doesn't freeze, doesn't understand Operating systems. Any OS can freeze/crash due to flaky hardware. One obvious case is that of memory. If the memory is bad, how can the OS function? True, if there's a software problem, more times than not, the OS can gracefully shut down the ill behaving application. No such luck w/ bad hardware. In my case, the last freeze has cost me 4 days of work, and a new hard drive. Apple was nice enough to send out new memory chips (the suspected culprit), though neither of us are certain this is indeed the case. The freeze happens randomly.

My warning to all who own this machine. Do backups...

5 out of 5 stars Incredible Machine.......2006-03-14

I have had this computer for about 2 years. I could not be happier with it. The design is just perfect needless to say. It's the first time I don't have any desire to get another computer after 1 year or so, and I don't plan on changing this one anytime soon (although I am planning on getting a MacBook Pro if a 12" version is released). I upgraded the memory to 1GB by myself and the process was extremely easy (not to mention how perfectly well the computer is put together on the inside, just as good as it is on the outside).

You can't go wrong getting apple hardware. Extremely well built quality product.

1 out of 5 stars Obsolete Technology Even for a Mac Fan Like Me.......2005-09-19

I am a Mac fanatic and I did some research about this so called Apple "dual processors" and I found out that 90% of the software available for macintosh doesn't even recognize the second extra processor, so it runs as if it were a single processor 99% of the time. In other words, the computer works at half the advertised speed for practically everyone. I confirmed this by speaking directly with a representative for ALIAS, makers of Maya 3D. At this time, MAYA can only use one processor!

Price: Obviously the price is ridiculous considering you can purchase a faster PC for $600 anywhere.

Operating System: I use OS X and OS 9 in my G4 and I can tell you a little secret: "system 9" is much faster than "OS X". A lot faster, but system 9 is no longer supported by Apple on G5. OS X is also much slower than any version of Windows. On top of that, most OS X applications are not dual processor aware (despite claims to the contrary) and still crash often, just like Windows, the only difference is you don't have to restart your computer when that happens. Many great games only run on OS 9. Photoshop runs much, much faster in OS 9 compared to the newer version of OS X, Panther and Jaguar.

Upgradability: Basically all Macintosh computers are unfriendly to non-Apple upgrades, but the G5 is particularly unfriendly. Apple has limitations built-in in the logic board that greatly limit the use of third party devices, specially DVD burners, go figure. So, if in the future you need to add external devices to your MAC you probably won't be able to. I also discovered that all G5 models are incompatible with your old Mac upgrades, in order words, you can't transfer your old video cards, ram memory, game cards, SCSI equipment, or any other upgrade from your old mac to the new one. Your investment is lost and you have to start from scratch, adding to an already high price tag.

So, are there any advantages in purchasing this model? None whatsoever, the G5s are a technological failure in almost every possible aspect. Thumbs down. Worse Apple model ever conceived and it is currently on his way to the museum anyway. Doesn't even deserve one star. However, the new Pentium Macs may be a different story, although I have grown increasingly distrustful of recent Apple marketing deceptive advertisement.

4 out of 5 stars Killer Machine, Just Freakin Awesome.......2005-04-07

I love this computer. I ordered a custom one with 512MB memory and dual 2.5 GHz G5. For the most part, I find the platform to be stable, without any crashes or constant freezes as reported by other users.

I initially had serious problems with Mac OS X and games that used 3D graphics libraries. There were several notable bugs. But after cooperation between Apple and companies like Blizzard, they have fixed many of these bugs, and man oh man, the graphics are like freakin' sweeeet!!

I'm a regular addict for games like World of Warcraft. I also use this for office productivity (Office 2004), synchornization of English/Japanese data (PocketPC, iPod, and bluetooth cellphone), web page authoring (Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Flash), and the ocassional programming/scripting (perl, C, java, Mono .Net). All around, this is the most used system in my house amongst many Windows and Linux systems.

5 out of 5 stars Take the negative reviews with a large grain of salt........2005-02-27

It's easy to see Windows users trying to "bomb" the review of this amazing computer. Pay no attention. You see, unlike Windows, OS X never freezes. Ever. I have four Macs at home, a PowerBook, and an iMac G5 at the office, all running OS 10.3, and none of them -- none, including a dual G5 just like this one -- have ever crashed or frozen. Reviews that say different are complete fabrications. Why? Because the underpinning of OS X is UNIX, which keeps the OS running even if an individual program crashes -- which might happen on rare occasions. What do you do then? Simply relaunch the program and no problems at all.

This is terrific computer and a terrific value. It comes with Apple's unparalleled "video lifestyle" applications, too. And do invest in more RAM. It's cheap and super easy to install. In fact, the G5 is designed from the ground up for easy access and easy upgrades. Even a computer novice can install a new hard drive, updated DVD drive, memory, or a wireless card -- even the new Radeon X-800 for Mac installs like a breeze (and doesn't require it's own power supply cord like the PC version).

But don't just read this review, zip down to the nearest Apple Store and take a test drive. This is what a computer is meant to be.

        3 out of 5 stars Kind of fuzzy..........2006-03-12

        This is my first flat-screen LCD monitor, so maybe the images and type aren't supposed to be as crystal-clear as my old NEC Multi-Sync CRT monitor. Or maybe it's because everything's enlarged to 19 inches.

        Also, the Auto-Brightness setting button seems a little limited. The eight choices are either too bright for me or too dark (and that was AFTER following the calibrataing instructions). Makes me miss the old-fashioned manual turning-wheel dial.

        However, the price was right and it will do.

                        5 out of 5 stars Big and Bright conventional format LCD monitor.......2003-07-28

                        This monitor is huge. And bright. The contrast is amazing, and the colors don't budge with your eye in one corner of the monitor looking across it, so I can almost believe the 170 degree viewing angle claim. I find it works better a little further back than most LCDs I've been used to due to the relatively large pixel pitch resulting from 1600x1200 at 21.3" diagonal. Larger monitors further back are easier on the eyes because they don't require close focusing which causes strain. This monitor is the smaller sibling of the 240T, which is an otherwise identical monitor, with identical height and pixel size, but with a 24" diagonal at 1920x1200 resolution. My wife and I are both computer professionals, and we have one of each at home. For working on the computer, the 240T is almost too large, and the extra width is all but unusable because windows at the sides of the screen seem far away.

                        This monitor, like the 240T, accepts S-Video and composite (not component) video input, and does a reasonable job of de-interlacing and scaling. The major difference is that the 240T is high enough resolution for full 1080 format HDTV (1920x1080 pixels, 16:9 letterbox aspect ratio), which can be input via either DVI or VGA. This monitor, the 210T, can only manage 1600x900 for letterbox; both run 1600x1200 for regular TV 4:3 aspect ratio.

                        DVDs played through the computer's DVD player and scaled by a decent graphics card look much better than those coming from S-video when there aren't too many motion artifacts (see my review of WinDVD 4); but many DVDs play so poorly on PC home theater DVD players that I fall back on the regular DVD player through S-video fairly regularly. For computer connections, DVI input is much much sharper than VGA input; if you get this monitor, it's worth upgrading to a graphics card with DVI output. Contrary to the manuals of the monitors and graphics cards, both the Radeon 9000 Pro 128MB and the Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB model had no problem driving the 240T and 210T at their full resolutions in DVI mode at the monitor's native 60Hz refresh rate.

                        I'd like to see Samsung's new DVD HD931 player that provides progressive format (de-interlaced) DVI output, which should be optimal for this monitor (and the 240T). The home theater review sites love the HD931 player and the whole concept of connecting via DVI. The only reason I don't have the DVD HD931 is that the monitor only has a single DVI input, and it's in an awkard, though space-saving, vertical arrangment. Turns out that DVI routers are expensive, so plugging in two DVI inputs to a single monitor doesn't seem practical yet.

                        This is the black one; there's also a silver model.

                        4 out of 5 stars Samsung 210T.......2003-05-12

                        Hi, I just got my 210T this weekend. I did a great deal of research before finally purchasing this monitor. One thing that I noticed was that there weren't that many reviews on this monitor which is what prompted me to write one. This is a truely great monitor. It allows you to connect many other devices to it other than your computer. I personally connected my PS2 and my cable box. You don't even need a tv tuner to get this monitor to broadcast tv signals. The picture in picture is a great feature which allows you to do work and watch tv or anything else you connect on a different source. Picture quality and brightness is exceptional. If you do get this monitor try and set it up digitally because it is much cleaner in my opinion.

                        5 out of 5 stars I'm in love........2003-03-21

                        I previously was using a dual monitor setup with a Samsung 17" 170MP (Which I LOVE) and an NEC 1850X which was pretty good and I wanted just one monitor.

                        Go buy this monitor.

                        The color is great - you can see it from every angle, and it's HUGE. 1600 by 1200 res - Which you will want to use.

                        The only things I can think of that are slightly negative is that I wish it was even HIGHER res - But I am a resolution junkie! ... and you don't really need the DVI cable - I have tried many times with both the VGA and DVI and they are both the same. NO DIFFERENCE.

                        You WILL get compliments on this monitor - The most common is "Wow - That is a cool monitor!"

                        I'm such a nerd for even doing the review - But I LOVE this monitor.

                        PS: I am an IT Manager and know my fair share about computers - I went through 20+ monitors before plunking down the cash for this one.

                        5 out of 5 stars Improved Reception.......2003-01-10

                        I bought my Mom a small TV/VCR combo for her bedroom. We first used standard cables (from a well known electric company), and had a drab, mediocre, run-of-the mill picture. When the MV2F's arrived (4 meter - from Amazon.com, of course), the picture changed dramatically. Better colors, better resolution, better everything. The reception was so good on the 13 inch bedroom, my parents watched it more than the 32 inch in the family room. My Mother wanted to know why Monster wasn't on all the TV's in the house. I did order the MV3F's and Z series for the larger 32 inch set ... which died before the cables arrived. The 32" was replaced by a nice, heavy, 27" Sony Flat. The cables did arrive in time for the new TV. The TV man couldn't believe the picture. It never had a picture that good, in the store, even when playing a DVD. I read other customer reviews, at Amazon.com, before my first Monster purchase. The best review said, in effect, that Monster will make your TV do all it can do, it won't make it a better TV. For the new TV's in my parents house...the difference was major. MH
