Pros: everything
Cons: haven't found any

Those...

Cons: none

Apple has done it again! They not only create a great computer that is easy to use and loaded with great stuff. They made it a masterpiece, both technology wise and to the eye. It is very functional and all in one case. It took less then 10 minutes to...

Pros: Video editing is easy! Ease of set-up, ease of use. Fast!

I was looking for a way to make high-quality home videos to send back to my family 3000 miles away. I found my solution in the iMac DV Special Edition. The iMac DV SE comes with 2 independent USB ports, 2 FireWire ports, a 56 kbps modem, 10/100 BASE-T...

Pros: Great Interface, no tower to mess with, Installation a breeze
Cons: Looks pricier, but not when you consider how it works

Well, we aren't Adam and Eve, but i did have to talk my husband into buying this little gem for me. I had just graduated photography school, and even though i had spent years on PC's prior to working with macintosh OS, I found that it was easier to ...

Pros: Simple, robust, elegant
Cons: Clumsy keyboard

Now that the G4s are out, prices on the older iMacs should fall. If you get a chance to pick up this one for a reasonable price, do it.

You know the basics. Graphite color, cube design, speakers, built in modem, headphone jack, teensy...

Pros: Plently processor power, enough HD space and funky looks!
Cons: As usual, bad RAM provision from Apple.

This is my second iMac, my first being a Tangerine one with the tray CD-ROM drive. It must be said that everything about this one is superior to my last: Firewire, optical mouse, full-size keyboard, CD-RW, and not forgetting the awwwww-inducing pulsing...

Pros: Easy set up, blazing fast, decent price
Cons: No floppy drive. Unit tends to get slightly hot.

They say first impressions are the most important. How true. I once inquired about an IMac at CompUSA and the salesman told me in a few months, IMacs woould be coming as "Free Inside" toys in cereal boxes, that they were worthless pieces of...

Pros: Excellent Value
Cons: How about one PCI card slot

My husband works at a community college that is approximately 80% Windows oriented. His dept. purchased an iMacDV-Special Edition for editing video for a PowerPoint presentation. The speed was incredible, and the iMovie software package was easy to...

Pros: Classy look and feel; ground-breaking design
Cons: Might not be the dream video editing system you're looking for.

A caveat on this quick review: I haven't actually seen the machine, but I can tell you something that disturbs me just a little bit.

In my use of an older G3 system (one of those old-fashioned "platinum" systems), I found that...

Pros: Fast, Flexible, Near-portable, decent amount of software included.
Cons: Lack of easy/cheap processor upgradability.

You just gotta love an all-in-one, grab-it-by-the-handle-and-go, fast (400MHz), quality Mac.

The iMacs didn't float my boat early on, but the DV/SE is the exception. This is the ONLY one I would buy, and I had to...

Pros: Fast, easy to use, beautiful
Cons: should be a G4, should come in lime

First: I admit that I don't own this computer, YET. However I have used a friends iMac DV special edition several times, so I do feel qualified to discuss it. Plus, I do plan to buy one soon.

The first thing to address is the machine's tech...

Pros: easy to use
Cons: mouse

The new imac dv special edition is extremely user friendly. For a first time user I have not had any control problems that I could not figure out. I fancy myself as decently computer literate now thanks to my graphite colored imac. The keyboard, as...

Pros: Performance, Ease of operation, optical mouse, Watching DVD movies, quiet operation
Cons: "snow" color, bait-and-switch marketing, noisy DVD drive

As a high school student, I'm exposed to a plethora of "high-tech" gizmos. The iMac DV (actually the newer special edition) is my favorite desktop computer. Being technically inclined, I would tout its processing speed and bit-rate, which cause...

Pros: Fast as anything, looks great
Cons: When you look into the back it seems that it could be smaller

I am using this computer right now and I love it. Not only is the first fun and cool looking computer but it's very powerful. Apple has always been a favorite of mine. Since I first got the SE30 for about $2000-3000, I've have always loved them. Apple...
