The New 2010 iMac Classic Design, New Material (Aluminum, Glass)

iMac2010-Elitef50V3.png


What do you guys think? Would you buy it? I know I would. :D
 
perfect i love it :)
it looks far better then the new iMac`s
i always liked the g4 iMac nicknamed the lamp :)
but apple stopped producing and upgrading it :mad:
it was something apple was good at "building something unique "
it would be not another flat screen AIO :rolleyes:

no offense the new imac looks good , but the radical design of previous mac`s is missing
like the iMac g3 , the iMac g4 , even the iMac g5
they had something only apple could come up with
the new ones are basically only a improved iMac g5
so why not make a improved of the iMac g4
 
What, only C2D CPU? What about i7 an a 30" screen? While your at it ATI 5xxx GPU would be nice too.
My dad is still using his iMac G4. I prefer the design of the current iMac more, although the G4 was quite avantgarde at the time of it's release.
 
Hmm.. funny how the new iMac is 27" and it would make no sense if it was 22"

anyway, other than no spec improvements at all, and the ugly looks, no, I definitely wouldn't.

I'd rather keep mine
 
That design looked great on the iMac G4, but it doesn't fit in at all with Apple's current product line. Current iMac looks great IMO.
 
I love it. I would buy. Though I love the current iMac design, I am kind of bored and would like something really new... But it's not gonna happen till a while with these new i7s etc.

It's the base model.
 
Apple wont be satisfied until the iMac is just a screen floating in mid air. All completely wireless. Power and peripherals.

I would be satisfied with that too. Those old iMacs looks bulky and funny looking. New iMacs look great.

EDIT:

This is the direction is going in. There almost there. Just need to perfect wireless power and antigravity. :D

I think it's sexy and beautiful, I would purchase one in a heart beat !

I would even put it next to my i7 :-D
 
Would have been sexy 6 years ago!

The G4's anglepoise design knocks spots off of the subsequent all-in-one approach, but the base looks so dated now...
 
I never liked this version of the iMac or the original form for that matter. Too cutesy and juvenile. Give me brushed metal and glass any day.
 
the ortiginal and for that matter the first computer from apple with the name iMac
was the iMac g3 not the iMac G4
and its cute and it will live forever :p
it will still be working when all 27 are long gone :p
it was the Mac that saved apple from very likely going into
bankruptcy without it there would be no iMac 27" today
here a picture of it for the peeps who are too young to remember

thats how it started :)

but ther was one Mac which you could even more take as the forfather of the flatscreen iMacs
and that was the
Twentieth Anniversary Macintosh or also called TAM
it was the first all in one computer from apple with a flatscreen

Front_with_Logo
