Default New iMac G5

Was going to stay up (1am local time, 10 am Paris time), but I have to leave for water polo in a minute so I had to sleep.

Not sure I like the limitation of the screen and CPU being integrated, but it looks cool. I'm too lazy to look...what size is the screen?

I realize that the previous iMac was also integrated, and that's what I liked least about it, too...

iMACs are for pussies, literally.



You might as well go to have your nails done.

Brant, I just ordered one yesterday with the iPod

I don't know why I got it over the 12 inch, but I did. Got the backlit keyboard because Mikey wants me to whore at night. Pretty excited.

I'm not jumping with joy on the new iMac, it kinda does look like it's going to tip over. I think the jump from iMac G3 to G4 was a bigger jump. That was revolutionary, but of course, it cost too much. So I guess they wanted to get a more cost efficient G5 machine out there and I guess they did. It comes in a 17" and a 20".

Enjoy the PowerBook. If I get down to Cali again you better hide it...
