They either should have made the whole thing black or aluminum.

New imac its really nice, but i not say WOW when see the machine for first time, usually when Mr Steve Jobs present new product its usually people clap hands or you listen people make some exclamation.........this time Imac not cause that wow effect..... just silence from audience.

About the imac, i like more the old white design, this new design its too retro, its like old psicodelic 70s TV jijij just need the V antena in the top lol

The machine its ok , the spec dont really makme say WOW !! i think right now its the perfect moment for buy one 24" IMAC white prior model for low money.

The imac prior whites models have display very glossy, and usually that is a big problem when you work for high number of ours, make eyes cry after lot of hours in minmum bright.....
All the first reviews are talking right now about display its VERY VERY GLOSSY, all they are talking about that like not good point.....

If 24" imac prior mode its very glossy......i dont imagine working for hours on this new models !! due are very very glossy displays !!
And for graphic designers , display extreme glossy are knowed trouble, anyway here on ableotn forum usually we are audio workers not graphic : )

I think for now, if you plain buy new machine, go for low price prior model....its really good option

About the design, i not really like.... its nice, but not that clasical WOW !! apple cause.

I spect something like this for this new Imac....but NO:

I may be biased as well.

I had a Sony Vaio laptop and it died after like 2 yrs. Sony also has the WORST customer service on the planet. I've worked in pro audio stores and I can confirm that Sony is downright an awful awful company but they do make nice looking computers. It's amazing they're still in business.

I'm working in the financial/ investment world right now and the consensus seems to be that it's amazing Sony is still around. They make so many bad business decisions (see PS3 for example) and then every once in a while they come out with a product at the right time to save their ass (see Playstation). This keeps happening.

But, yeah, their TVs are pretty dope.

Well i think they and any other can mistake with some products, but the line of products from sony its very big !!

They can mistake with one like ps3, no idea, but think ps, ps2, ibot, aliance with erikson and large line of computers and home devices from sony not are mistake : )

Sony have very large of products......not just ps3 and the inventory form sony, its really really really LONGGGGGG
They cover entertaiment from A to Z, and the VAIO products are really good.


SONY provide for large time, battery for apples and LCD displays lol
Your MAc have some part form SONY......

I not think they are idiots : )
