Amazon User Opinions
There are currently 18 customer reviews with a 4.5 star rating at Amazon. Everybody loves the MB950LL/A because it’s easy to use and is much faster than previous IMacs. The 21.5″ widescreen is sleek, clean and beautiful. Over and over again users are calling the “screen quality is the best I have ever seen on any computer.” One user explains the reasons why IMacs are nearly perfect are because Apple chooses the best available quality components. This gives great reliability and worry free years of use. Here’s a couple of recent user opinions:

• “With the latest iMac, Apple has improved pretty much everything. No particular area stands out as dramatically different. Instead Apple consistently made it just a bit better in every area. It all adds up. The new iMac runs a little faster, the display is a little better, the mouse feels right in the hand, and the keyboard could be on display in a modern art museum. Put it all together and you have a significant improvement. Apple is clearly paying attention to the iMac.”

• “My 2007 IMac starts in under twenty seconds and has never glitched or locked up. it will run with the wind, and though I don’t run very graphic intensive programs I have every reason to believe it will fare well. There are Macs made for that kind of intensive work but 90% of us will never need that level of machine. I run my iMac eighteen hours a day, share it with my children and never worry about failures.”

• “We have been in the market for a new all-in-one computer for few months: after careful comparison we decided to go for the iMac 21.5” and…WOW, this is the best piece of hardware i ever owned! The screen is fantastic, the mouse “smart” and Mac OS is what unix should be in order to grab market share over windows in the end users market: stable, secure, easy to use and fun!”
