Price competition hurts Apple's smaller iMac

 

Windows vendors are good at cramming in features at low cost, a competitive reality that makes the 21.5-inch iMac look too expensive.

Apple's attention to detail extends to the 21.5-inch version of its thin-looking ; .

Windows-based all-in-one PCs offer tough hardware competition in the sub-$1,400 price range.

The 21.5-inch iMac will be a compelling lower-cost all-in-one for Mac loyalists, but you can get more capabilities from similarly priced Windows all-in-ones.

Apple iMac (Winter 2009) review: Apple iMac (Winter 2009)

 

Apple iMac (Winter 2009)

Best-in-class design; competitive performance in its price range, especially for multitasking; capable mainstream gaming performance.

Windows all-in-one vendors offer 20-inch or larger all-in-ones for less; not as well-suited as a dedicated digital entertainment system as some other all-in-ones.

A few other all-in-ones make this 20-inch iMac look expensive on a dollars-per-screen-inch basis, but none are as attractive or as capable juggling multiple programs. With a fast dual-core CPU and a strong array of features, Apple's updated all-in-one...

Service and support

 

Apple iMac

Attractive all-in-one design; vivid wide-screen display; great software bundle for home users.

Little room for expansion; so-so service and support.

The iMac's 20-inch display makes both work and play a lot easier on the eyes, if not on the wallet.

Apple's 27-in. iMac 'the ultimate all-in-one' computer

 

The latest model offers a two-punch combo of beauty and brawn

Apple iMac

 

Supersleek all-in-one system offers great image quality.

Sleek, all-in-one design, improved screen quality

All-in-one design limits expansion

As appealing as the new iMac is, with the Leopard operating system coming this month, I'd recommend holding off. If you do, you'll get the new OS preinstalled.

Apple iMac 2007 review

 

It's skinny, hewn from aluminium and looks like a desktop iPhone. But does the latest iMac offer more than meets the eye?

Apple iMac

 

Every new iMac features an iPod Shuffle-style remote control, which magnetically clings to the side of the iMac and, with Front Row, you can control iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie and the DVD player from up to 30 feet away

You'll get iLife 06, Photobooth, iChat, iCal and Address Book into the bargain. Very lounge friendly. Features a handy iPod Shuffle-style remote

Microsoft Office 30 day trial is a tease. Could have included more digital hubs. Photoshop runs slower than on the G5iMac

Apple iMac review

 

This year's new and improved models

The new iMacs introduce the most drastic changes to Apple's all in one aluminum design since the metal iMac was introduced a little over two years ago. The new design lends itself more towards use as central part of a home entertainment centre.
