Pros: Fast, powerful, trouble-free Cons: Cheesy mouse and keyboard, looks a bit like a toy
This is a significantly revised version of an earlier deleted opinion
Just to give you a little history on me and my computers...I bought my first Mac when I was in graduate school - a Mac Plus. Ever heard of that? I paid about the...
Pros: Looks great, quiet operation, runs the latest MacOS Cons: Awful keyboard and mouse
Most of you have probably seen the “Switch” campaign that Apple Computer has been airing on TV for the last months, claiming how much better Macs are compared to PCs. You’ve probably seen screenshots of Mac OS X, or maybe even played with it...
Pros: Fast, stable, expandable, very cheap now! Cons: Some don't like the design
I am a Mac convert (used to have total disdain for them) because of OS 8.5 and this computer. I do tech support for both Macs and PCs, so I have a lot of experience fixing and working with computers, and the more I fix PCs the more I appreciate Macs...
Pros: Easy to set up and use! Cons: Misinformation about Mac's make getting answers hard.
I have two G3's. One a 450Mhz and the other a 350Mhz (upgraded to 450) with DVD, both systems are running OS9. I also have a older Dell Optiplex PII 450 as my NT Server that the Mac's share along with my IBM Thinkpad 600X and Powerbook G3.
Pros: Reliability, Speed, Price, Capability, and smooth design too! Cons: not a thing
I was sat down in front of an Apple computer at around age 3. What can I say, I was a precocious child and my father was looking for a way to shut me up. Unfortunately for him, he only jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire.
I'm sure those new G4s and nifty blue and white G3s are great. But what about those old, first generation Beige (actually, gray. The last beige computer I used was out old Mac Plus) G3's?
Well, they're still pretty nice, and with a few slight...
The only contact I have with G3's is at my university. Man, I was impressed with my department that I work for, mainly because they were upgrading. I had wanted a G3 of my own, but thought I'd check it out before making a purchase that big.
Pros: Easy enough for a child to use. Cons: The mouse and key board.
I realize that I will probably get blasted both by Apple lovers and by anyone who feels that this epinion isn't technical enough. I'm not a technical person, but like most other Americans, I do use technology on a daily basis. I know what I like and...
Pros: Style, Easy access to inside for upgrades, Reliable, Fast Cons: Useless mouse and keyboard
The PowerMac G3 comes in 3 processor speeds: the Motorola 350, 400, and 450MHz PowerPC chip. But if you're a smart computer shopper, you know not to merely compare and look at MHz, because that is not the end-all-be-all indicator of a computer's speed...
Pros: Fast. Stable. Good quality. Excellent flip-down case. Stylish. Cons: Weird mouse. Bug with ATI card needs patch. Keyboard missing back-delete
I've been using a Mac G3 for over a year now. A large part of my work involves graphics design since I'm in the advertising business. I also use a PC running Windows 98 (P-III 550MHz). Generally I've been happy with the G3, especially if I compare the...
Pros: reliable, ages well, value, expansion room Cons: lots of newer models out there
Synopsis:
Not the fastest or coolest Mac, but damn it, the beige G3 desktop ages better than I could have ever expected. Incredibly cost-effective to own over a couple of years.
Pros: Style,power,flexibility Cons: She doesn't make coffee
Me and my Blue & White G3 (B & W) have spent a wonderful year together. I first met her at MacWorld '99. There she was on the stage with proud papa Jobs touting her style,power and flexibility. It was very exciting and I had to have one! After...
This computer is such a great change from my Apple PPC 8500 150 MHZ machine. I have found such hard time using the old machine for more than several months. This new look make the Apple machines wonderful. I love the new colors and molded curves. I...
