42 Comments on Ten things we love about the new iMac 2013

    • +Griffin Hankins Apple’s mouses are very comfortable to use. Obviously you
      haven’t used one in the last decade.

    • +뿡뿡! ^__^ What? how are they comfortable? The magic mouse is way to flat
      and gives anyone without a tiny hand cramps and the mighty mouse is just
      awkward, also lack of right mouse button also sucks

    • +Mads D Actually, both mouses and mice are considered correct because what
      we are talking about isn’t “mouse” the animal, but “mouse” used for
      computers. Both of you are considered correct. 🙂

    • Costs so much ? In 1984 my dad bought me a Apple IIe – invoice was about
      $2400 after adding up all the extras not including software that you
      actually had to buy along with printers, graphics cards, modems, sound
      cards. My dad was not rich. What is $2400 in 1984 dollars ? I don’t
      know but WAY more than what you would be paying for an iMac these days.
      Pivotal decision to go with Apple in the early 80’s…launched me into a
      very successful career (26 years in IS). Apple inspired me to ‘Think
      different’. Thx dad. Go buy a MAC and be inspired.

    • I use PCs and part of the reason why I bought the monitor I have is because
      it looks so nice on my desk, not gonna lie. I really don’t think it’s such
      a bad thing to buy something partially because it looks nice. Though, if
      that’s the main reason you purchase something, you should reconsider.

  1. I purchased the new IMac because I really don’t think my kid really needs
    braces . His teeth look fine to me. 

  2. It’s been 8 years since i switched from a pc to a mac and i haven’t looked
    back i currently own the late 2012 27″ i mac 2.9 ghz. I also upgraded my
    ram to 16 a while back. I also recently added macbook pro 13.3 inch retina
    display to my collection. Now i use my i mac as a thunderbolt display while
    in target display mode for my mac book pro retina display extend my
    real-estate drag and drop from screen to screen. I can also use it as a
    desktop while in clamshell mode.

  3. The only problem the iMac has, is it’s not very portable. Omg, it’s not a
    portable computer, it’s a desktop computer, and for a desktop computer,
    it’s portability is the best !! If you had a proper computer, go carry the
    monitor, the tower, the speakers ! Omg ! 

    • Well, a regular peasant like you carries a basic pleb tower. Not a Full ATX
      Tower with $1,500 of parts like an actual computer user such as myself.
      Fear not plebian, your tower weighs nothing.

    • I’m only saying because people nowdays are never pleased! They will always
      find something not to like, even if it’s stupid like the iMac portability!

  4. “Only problem with the iMac is that it’s not very portable” shocker!!! I
    was just planing to take my 27inch iMac to Starbucks -.-

  5. LOL… “add on the price of a monitor to a cheaper PC”… no… it’s still
    bad, the iMac is significantly more expensive. I’m considering one, but
    the reason I don’t already have one is because of how ridiculously,
    outrageously expensive they are. I have to weigh the added cost against
    the value, which is NOT hardware performance. I will say I like some of
    the hardware design, but a company charging $600 to install $200 worth of
    ram, when the least tech savvy can do it in less than 60 seconds, I find
    incredibly distasteful.

    Anyway, Developers want the easiest path to profitability, which means
    developing for a half dozen Apple products (being released intermittently)
    instead of hundreds of possible Windows configurations (being released
    constantly). That is the appeal of Apple products, it’s less work for
    Developers to play there. That means, generally, better software than you
    typically find on Windows.

    I’m asking myself if I would spend a couple thousand dollars extra to use a
    handful of apps on Apple costing less than a couple hundred bucks, just to
    [hopefully] break my unwanted dependency on Adobe software. I’m asking
    myself if I want to spend ANOTHER $3000 to $4000 in a few years on a whole
    new system or spend a few hundred bucks upgrading a couple components on my
    PC. I’m wondering if I want to deal with all that and the learning curve
    of getting familiar with an iMac.

    Also, I like games.

  6. my roommate is selling his 27″ 2013 iMac 2.7 ghz 8 gb RAM, 1TB HD for $500.
    I think I’m going to go for it.

    • You saved a lot of money.. I paid $1300 for one (new) not long ago. For
      the late 2013. So you got an awesome deal. Enjoy it.

    • +Zack Nichols Nice! I got mine for 900 euro barely used. The company that
      had it just kept it in a room for a few weeks and barely used it. Shortly
      later, they went bankrupt, so they sold it. So I got a pretty much
      good-as-new iMac at 60% off.
