Product Review:
Apple computers have always been a little mysterious to me as they look and function so differently from regular computers. Due to the size of my room, I have always used laptops due to space restrictions. For a very long time now I have been thinking of getting as desktop as they are just so much more powerful. With the 2.66GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor, the Apple iMac MB417LL/A 20-Inch desktop is speedy and very efficient. The graphics card can even support another external monitor up to 30-inches in size and with a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. Like many new Apple products, this iMac is environmental friendly as it uses recyclable and safe, non-toxic components in its production. It is also very energy efficient. All in all, this is a very competent desktop model. If you can afford to fork out the extra cash, this desktop is definitely worth the premium price.
