So Paul, are you going to get one?
Maybe the 24″one, it’s only €2,220. Pocket change.
Oh yeah, pocket change! I’m checking down the back of the couch as I speak!
After having a quick look, I would love one, but given that I’ve already bought a new MacBook, HP Desktop, and a Dell Inspiron this year, my bank manager would probably have a fit if he saw a new iMac on my credit card statement!
How about you? Has the green eyed monster convinced you yet?
No chance. I have bought a Macbook and iMac in the last 6 months.
Apple are bastards for constantly updating their gear. Two weeks after buying my macbook they doubled the RAM on all models. Bah!
I doubt I’ll need to upgrade for at least two years I’d say. Nothing wrong but my current arsenal.
Apples upgrades are less frequent than other manufacturers, so when they do upgrade the line, it “hurts” a bit more.
If you buy a Dell machine, and they upgrade one of their lines, even if you notice, are you really going to be that annoyed about it?
I’m very happy with my MacBook. I turned on my Windows machine yesterday for the first time in about a month, and that was only to access a shared drive from my MacBook.
BTW, I saw an article in the Irish Independent quoting you in relation to Facebook and other social networking sites. Nice to see someone with a clue being quoted for a change!
Ha, you saw that,
Cheers, first person to mention it to me.
I bought an iMac and I was realy happy with it until I found out the next day that apple just released a new iMac for much cheaper then what I bought my iMac for.
I won’t be suprised if apple starts to lose its costumers.
Hi Julius, and welcome!
When things like that happen it does tend to leave a bitter taste.
Did you try to return your iMac to Apple? If it was only a day old, surely you’d be within your rights to return it with no questions asked, and order the new model instead?
The secret to surviving Apple upgrades is twofold.
1. Always buy within 6 months of a new release if it bothers you. Apple’s upgrade cycle is around 10 months on average. So if it’s been 9 months since the last update and an upgrade in a month would hack you off – hold off. It’s easy to find out the release info if you know a Mac person, can read a Press Release or have a copy of Mactracker.
2. Just like with any other manufacturer, the moment you buy your computer it’s out of date. It’s a fact. Get used to it. And don’t be sore. The machine you have serves the purposes for which you bought it.
True.
The way I look at it is that if you’re buying something just so you can have the latest and greatest, then it’s probably something that you don’t *really* need.
On the other hand if it does what you want it to do, then there’s no great loss.
I would have gone with your idea if I had had an external harddrive to store my data in, and if you buy it you will have to buy new software like windows vista to run in the iMac, if I copy the xp DVD that I had then it will be breaching copyright and they will have me in jail (or paying Microsoft up to $2000) in no time.
