New Imac vs. 24" Cinema Display


Recommended Posts

BTW - the iMac 27" (and maybe the 21.5") is in a 2-week shipping hiatus due to continuing troubles with an occasional yellow tint on part or all of the screen, while Apple sorts it out. (Sound familiar to Leica buyers? ;) )

 

On the whole, while my iMac gets the job done (no yellow on my screen), I think today I'd bite the bullet and get a Mac Pro with separate screen. For portability, one puts up with the heat output and the "small components are better than good components - cram it in" laptop philosophy (slot DVD drives, minimal fans, etc). I no longer think it translates to desktop computers, at least above a basic home-use 20" screen that only runs 4 hours a day.

 

The price savings just got wiped out by the $700 cost to recover a small (but critical) number of photos and other files I'd failed to back up (live and learn).
