Pros: All-in-one. Beautiful. Very easy to use. These things last forever. Run OS X & 9.
Cons: Heavy, heavy, heavy. You need a real sturdy table for this eMac. Shows finger prints.
The Bottom Line: You can't get a PC that does what this eMac can do for twice the price. Hay! You can't have enough Macs. I have 10 or more.

| stuff2go's Full Review: Apple eMac 17 in. (M8950LL/A BUNDLE) Mac Desktop |
For the same standard features, you will pay a bit more for an Apple, but as any Mac user will tell you, you get what you pay for. Now you can get this great system for a budget price. Unless you need the absolute fastest processor, or have your heart set on a flat-panel display, this is the best deal around. You'll need to get a better mouse (true for any Mac), and it could use some extra RAM, but other than that, this has everything the average user needs.
A recent user survey in PC magazine identified Apple computers as the most reliable and easiest to use computers currently available. Yes, most people use Windows-based PCs, but do you want to be another member of the PC herd -- with all of the problems and frustrations presented by Windows-based PCs -- or are you looking for a computer which is user friendly and seldom crashes? If ease of use and reliability are more important to you than being one of the crowd, please seriously consider buying an Apple. Since the eMac is Apple's least expensive computer, it's a terrific way to enter the user-friendly world of Apple computers at a very reasonable price. And don't be concerned about the processor speed, this is a very fast computer. The 1 GHz G4 processor is roughly equivalent to a 2 GHz Pentium processor. If you're willing to try something off the beaten path, you'll love this computer.
