This new one looks like an annoying addition.... Hopefully it comes with an attachable hammer so that I may smash it :)

I kinda like the new iMac, you can call it ugly or beautiful but you can\'t say it isn\'t new.

But...we all have our preferences...so...whatever...:)

I\'m glad Apple decided to choose an LCD panel as the standard, not optional. Just wish they upped it to 17" and capable of 1600x1200. I think they need to have more options available for expandibility, then it would be more successful.

Post by: nO-One on January 11, 2002, 01:40:54 AM: True dat, however since the iMac is designed for those who know next to nothing about computers I don\'t think an higher resolution would be a good idea. Just about every non geek seems to think that anything above 1024x768 is overkill.

But those like me would kill for an higer res.

You people must watch this show. Comedy Central at 11pm. Rerun in the morning and again at 7pm the next day.

They were comparing the dudes fascination of the little arm and how you can push the monitor up and down with that of the common dek lamp. It was funny.
