Apple iMac G5 review

1 ... 5 6 7 ... 16

Monday 31 January 2005, 8:54 PM

I started with a Mac, had a PC and now I'm back with a Mac.

I can be truly objective in my comments as I've used both PCs and Macs. Why then have I chosen a Mac as my final choice? The sheer pleasure of using integrated applications that work so well together. Coupled with the fact that problem-solving follows a logical path which, once used with one application, invariably works with all the others. I'm not one of those people who says PCs are rubbish and Macs are perfect, but I can say that my lovely new iMac G5 beats the pants off my old PC with its myriad of conflicting programs and ever-increasing 'blue screen' crashes. For me, Macs will always offer what PCs cannot -- pure, creative joy.

So if you upgrade to XP SP3 you can't uninstall Internet Explorer, I'm quite sure I'm having a Deja-vu feeling about MS preventing people from uninstalling Internet Explorer in other Windows products.
