    The only way to go.

    Pros: Stylish, efficient, great graphics.

    Cons: Less software than Windows- but that's not their fault!

    This is definiely the best personal computer out there. It has just as many features as Windows, and then some! It's not customizable in all the same ways, but makes up for that elsewhere. Ease of use is definitely 10 out of 5. Heads and shou...lders above any other operating system- especially Windows! It takes about 10 minutes to set it up when you unpack it. Once you're set up, there's no limit to what you can do. Import photos, music, or movies, and burn them to a DVD with the slot-loading SuperDrive. Create a slideshow in seconds, and enjoy the 20" screen to see your photos in their full glory for the first time! Plug and play is great on Mac OS X, as well as Drag'nDrop- take a snapshot with the built-in webcam, drag it to your Instant Messenger window, and it sends it automatically. Yes, nothing beats this combination of great hardware and even better software, all in one stylish package. Read more Less

    Computer is good / customer sevice is awful

    By Cape Cod Donna  May 12, 2007 | 4 out of 4 found this Apple iMac 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (20-inch monitor) review helpful

    Pros: easy to set up / easy to use / sleek machine

    Cons: Customer service is arrogant and rude. Lots of hidden costs

    I really don't have many complaints with the computer. It is the sales and tech support where the problem lies. The sales staff weren't as up front as I would have preferred about the ease of set up. Had to reinstall the operating system with...in 24 hours. The sales staff are high pressure and lots of hidden tech support and classes that if you don't take them it is somewhat difficult to switch from a pc to mac. The onlone tutorials are extra too!! Not a great deal of information contained in the instructions. The real problem is the customer relations and tech support. It is terrible! Rude and abrasive. The company now needs to focus on this area. I am paying for the service to treat me badly.....go figure!! Read more Less
