Apple IMac Design - iMac sets new standards for elegance and power. It packs a complete, high-performance computer into its all-in-one design. With its anodized aluminum frame and glass cover, it’s striking to behold. The glossy widescreen display — available in 20- and 24-inch sizes — makes photos and movies come alive with rich color. The use of recyclable glass and aluminum makes iMac friendlier to the environment, too.
Well, if only I have enough money, I would go for a Mac. Personally, Mac is my best choice because of its many positive points, one of which is its quality. Mac is a better machine with a better operating system compared to a PC Windows system. You might have noticed that nobody is writing viruses to attack Macs. It saves a lot of time, trouble and energy for its users. Operating system in Macs is more stable. Even XP on a Pentium is not as stable as either OS 9 or OS X on the Mac. The OS X system is powerful and very stable. MicroSoft Windows needs updates and security patches very frequently. In earlier OSs Apple had little of this but with the UNIX based OS X there have been some updates and a few security fixes. When you have them the ones for the Mac are much easier to download and install. Interestingly, MicroSoft software for the Mac, Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, Entourage in Office X are (in my opinion) easier to use than the ones in Windows. The Office X for OS X is very good.
