How many of you like your next PC to be an Apple iMac?

Anusha · Jan 1, 2007

Apple PCs are very nice, and their design is unmatched by any of the PC manufacturers as of yet. That everything-in-the-monitor approach is a cool design and also it saves a lot of space. What do you think about this?

ooo yaaa i wanna one..... i wanna laptop .....

Anusha · Jan 1, 2007

Laptop? But all laptops have the same design ne? Or are you looking at Mac OSX more than the laptop?

Do they come with Remotes? I didn't know.
Anyway, why would you want a remote controller for a Lappie? Maybe good for a Desktop PC.

3 PCs are better than one long lasting one :yes:

U know, latest iMacs support Windows. So you can have the best of both world with an iMac: Hardware and Software.

Now it wouldn't be an Apple then would it???

Anusha · Jan 1, 2007

You can have both OSX and Windows :rolleyes:

Well.... its not as easy as that, because I knew people who installed windows in their Mac OS using virtual PC just because they has a Mac and they needed to try windows programs such as C++, VB, and many other web development softwares that runs in windows.. but when you install these softwares and using them through Virtual PC, there are lot of problems when you wanna try out these things!! Most probably due to the fact that you are running your Windows on top of Mac OS and programming languages such as C++ are actually kernel level languages!!

So.... It does not give you 100% performance that Windows has in a PC!

I think the point here is... what you are doing with your current system.. and does it really worth getting a Mac just to replace your PC?? For me it's BIG NO!! NO!!!

I'm not talking about Virtualization. Since Apple use Intel CPUs, you can actually install Windows in them. Apple released a software to install Windows in dual boot with OSX.

But then comes the price factor, prices are going down but not that much.. still it's very expensive!!! Intel Core Duo Mini Mac is around $1700 US with xp pre-installed, u know we can get a better desktop for that price!!!

Anusha · Jan 1, 2007

Yeah price is a governing factor, but the Apple's design in simply priceless. :yes:
