in my opinion macs have never looked THAT bad (except for the fruity colored i-macs). they just plain suck in terms of usability. before i couldn't make such a comment without feeling guilty because i had never touch a mac. but the last couple of months, i had the "privilege" of working with 30+ eMacs and boy do they blow.

No, they're ugly. I was using one last night and just didn't find anything attractive about it. The screen is not nearly as adjustable as the original iMac. The original's design appeals to me more than this one.

It looks way better than in the pics shown on Apple's site!

LOL, "it looks good"

Except for the powerbook i own i think it is mostly overpriced trendy computers for teenage chicks with fathers who have more money to spend than what is good for them.

UGLY! It looks like one of those old macs that we used to have in school. The ones that were so old that they were turning yellow and they would crash a couple times a day.

Wow, the computer LOOKS so great. Too bad there's about no games for them.

But hey, they are good for graphics right

hahahahaah... yeah right.. I think I'd stick w/ anything from apple's line before i would even touch an eMachine comp...

And why do people think it's so ugly? I would call it plain after seeing it in person. It's just rather interesting that they shoved everything into that box.

such an old topic though..

Same with mine. My iBook does, but it's 4 years old.

And it would make a fine machine for messing with FCP or some simple music programs.

Powersupply. It helps balance the whole system out, keep it ~2" thick, and gives it a retro-esque look.
