No, he's right. The original iMac was garbage. I had the distinct displeasure of being forced to use one back when I was in high school. All it was was a monitor with some cheap computer parts tossed in. I'm not saying the OS was bad, although it crashed way more often than the Windows NT PC's we also used, but the hardware was pure garbage. It's more of a novelty computer, cool to look at but no real substance underneath the pretty exterior.

Which iMac? There are millions of different versions. Those colored ones were never really good, yeah.

Slaying noobs since 2007.

Tbh, I never liked the iMacs, they just aren't what they should be, if you're going to make something supposedly better you have to go with the flow or start a new one, the iMac looks like a bloody 1980-1990's monitor. They should Take a flat panel, and create an a computer case that will help stabalize the back, and be no bigger than a first generation Playstation Two. Besides, it's not like the iMacs are on par with Falcons, and VooDoos, and such. Just make it look better and have the option to deattach the tower.

iMacs are extremely overpriced for the hardware you get. 'Nuff said.

They wouldn't be so frowned upon if the parts inside justified the price.

Plus, the near complete inability to upgrade the hardware is a negative, and seeing as hardware is virtually obsolete the day it comes out, that huge price you pay puts you on top for about a month or two, at which point you would have to buy a new one.

The Mac can run Windows, to an extent. Try loading up some of your favorite games, you'll see what I mean.

The iMac, to me at least, is a frustrating piece of hardware with an overinflated price.

This is a PC gaming forum. Willing to bet 9/10 people here hate macs without ever using one. Asking why is pointless: Hate is by its very nature unexplainable.

Well, aren't you just a bastion of the philosophical. What makes you think people here hate Macs without ever using one. I've used one, I didn't understand why everyone who uses one thinks they're the cats ass since I thought they were terrible computers. There are actually quite a few Mac users here and you rarely see them making ignorant comments like that. Because they understand that Macs aren't meant for PC gaming. And this is a PC gaming forum is it not?

  • 08.09.2007 6:57 AM PDT

Looks nice, but I hate using Macs. I'm forced to use them 3 days a week, every week at school, and I hate it. IMO, they're just eye candy.

Anyways, I'm moving this over to the Flood, seeing as how theres nothing to do with Halo 1/2 on PC here... lazy Yoozel.

Oh, come on, dude, everybody talks about PCs in the Maw, you know that; it doesn't have to do anything with Halo. Moderators let the other threads slip by all the time! Besides, what would the Flood be interested in talking about PCs for?

I feel as if the mac will snap in half if I touch it. Kinda the feeling I get w/ the nano.

Macs are definetly best for video editing and stuff like that, but I'm gonna be stickin with PC's until Apple picks up on the gaming side of their computers. There really isnt a mac as powerful and the best pc and there probably won't be for a while in terms of gaming.

Dammit, you STOLE MY PLAN!!!

...Unless Leopard is delayed again. Then I'll stop waiting, get it early next month, and shell out half a week's pay for an upgrade when it DOES come out.

Do we HAVE a set date for Leopard? I'm behind.

Gotta hand it to the folks at Apple for creating a good looking machine. I'm not a huge Mac-fan though, so I won't be getting one anytime soon.

I absolutely hate Apple. That said, that new iMac looks damn nice, internally and externally.
