do laptops have overheating issues anymore?
if so, it seems like this really compact desktop style would have just as many if not more.... either that, or their power is scaled back to compensate.
it looks pretty though.

Looks nice... I don't buy into the flatscreen craze and I bet most of the iMac customers don't need one at all. But people like them so it seems to be working to stick one on the iMac.

I really don't care for having the computer inside the monitor. Might as well just get a laptop, really.

the three or four inches of negative space below the screen is distracting.

Heh, yeah, there are definitely a ton of designers who must be getting paid way too much.

i think it's pretty nice looking overall... and very unique. i think for the last 5 or 6 years (or however long it's been since the 1st iMacs & steve jobs' return), apples design team is at least 75% responsible for their renewed glory.
they've done a great job branding themselves with this minimalism.

I wonder how much you pay for design when you buy a Mac.

Macs are quality, though. Good comps, but it's a rich mans game.

Apple are the creators of iPod, therefore it follows that the new iMac has been created by Apple. Hardly headline news.
It looks OK though.

The previous imac (which i own) looks better i think, although the new design will probably grow on me.
Having said that, when I do change my computer it will be for a G5 Powerbook in a year or two and i'll have a 17" desktop monitor for working at home. Of course thats assuming i'm a well paid Graphic Designer by then :)

meh...as child810 said, the previous imac (which i own as well) is nicer. i bet when you plug in firewire/usb/speakers/ethernet to the back, it limits the movement of the display. seems like it would be a potential annoyance.
that display would sit waaaaay to high for my desk. don't like that you can't adjust the height of it, only the tilt.
i like the slot loading rom drive though, that's about it. maybe i'm just jealous. ...no. no, i'm not.
