The State of Apple's Professional Line

Please don't ask me to go back and read the whole thing. It ain't gonna happen. Again, if I want to hear whining brats I'll go volunteer at my wife's elementary school.

Indeed, it was a rather long blog. But it was done to thoroughly explain why he believed what he believed.
But you go ahead dude and continue to comment on blog you haven't even read.

I only read the first 3 lines of what you said anyway...lol...

I mean, you could be right about how that guy is "wrong". But if you haven;t even read the whole blog, how do you know you're right?

Psychic powers?

No, it's more like he's started blogging and he can't stop.

Too many notes...

As for iMacs, never touch the stuff. The only iMac I have is the old all in one "Snow" version (500mHz). Picked it up for $4.99 at a thrift store. Runs great in my wife's classroom and the kids can beat on it all they want.

I got a lot of mileage out of my Rev A 17" flat panel G5 iMac. At the time I purchased it (Oct 2004), it was more portable than a Powermac G5, and far more powerful than their top of the line Powerbook G4. With firewire, it interfaced with my MOTU 828 MKii just fine and it shipped with a 7200 rpm hard drive which did great for recording and mixing. Although I now use a Macbook for live applications and a MacPro for studio work, said iMac is still running as well as ever despite being 6 years old, with some applications that never made the transition to intel no less. It still has, easily, the best display I have ever used to date even if it's only 17". I was a little bummed at first that I couldn't use it for a newer machine, but as the machine seems damn near immortal for a computer, at least it won't be rendered useless anytime soon.

@ St Matt - I know plenty of folks who love their iMacs. Except as noted above, I never owned one but the tech heads I know say they are not particularly "robust." I suspect you take good card of your stuff. ☺ That goes a long way towards making nearly any tool survive and 'love you long time.'
