Sony's answer to the iMac

[Zwhaler]

I wrote a nice little comment on YouTube

I've seen one of those in person, and it does look quite nice. But it is so underpowered! Read the specs on Sonys site, for the same price you can get an iMac that is twice as good from a hardware standpoint! Not to mention that it is 1000 times better from a software standpoint...

its ugly and gross

i guess he never saw the iMac?

I bet Phil Shiller will sleep well tonight

 

[I'm a ROb]

My first thought was that he was making a joke or a parady or something and in the end he would pull out an iMac...

If this really is the competition, then I understand why it took so long for my iMac to arrive Picking it up tomorrow.

I like Sony. But that is definitely sub-par. I wonder who they contracted the idea and design work out to?

 

[pcorajr]

That thing is ugly. I i had no choice and had to get a PC i would rather have a full tower instead of that computer.

 

[Cybergypsy]

I like the design MUCH better then the last two imacs...........

 

[FoxyKaye]

So it's ugly, but Apple could learn a thing or two from the express card slot and card reader. At the very least, since the iMac is AIO, the express card reader would add some functionality beyond WYSIWYG.

The front actually doesn't look bad, the profile and the back are a different story however... A good step for Sony, but they have a while to go.

But guys, come on. Who cares about apple when hp has such a SLEEK and SEXY all-in-one.

 

[steamboat26]

Best buy used to sell sony's that looked exactly like that, nobody bought them

 

[idyll]

what's even funnier is the guy who's talking about it.. oh man!!

 

[stuff99]

it's actually pretty nice in person

 

[flopticalcube]

It looks pretty in a sort of "completely ignore ergonomics for looks" way. Specs are crap. Keyboard is an even bigger mess than the new Apple one. Price is WAY too high.

 

[smurfy]

When he was talking about VAIO Media and he said 'It reminds of Windows Media Player, cept its actually...', I could have sworn he was going to say 'cept its actually...Front Row'

 

[thesdx]

Guess you haven't seen this one then

 

[Cybergypsy]

Yes the Sony is overpriced and low on specs....but its beautiful in person...

The Vaio or the hpish...oh wait the apple....Vaio in a heatbeat

 

[bc008]

Wait I know a company that sells a computer just like that! I think it's Apple.

 

[Alloye]

one word: eww

One more: Yuk!

But at least the Sony isn't as hideous as that Gateway monster. What were they thinking?

 

[chuckiehina]

I would worry about about the Dell

The Sony is old & under powered and the Gateway is a monster for the past and is more of a joke than anything else. But the Dell XPS M2010 is a more serious compititor for the new iMac in my opinion, although it is way overpriced. I don't understand why Dell markets it as a laptop.

I'm glad that Apple doesn't sell out and put "Intel Inside" stickers on the front of their computers. Sure they could make some money if they did, but I don't see how that's different from prostitution. Sell your body for a cheap buck, come on Sony. That computer looks ugly with those stickers.

It ADDS like .5GHz with the "Intel Inside" stickers. LOL

Notebooks are the worst, half a dozen!

You forgot me too.

But that really is a laptop (or at least if you have a BIG lap)

The XPS M2010 is a laptop as well.
