APPLE IMAC ALL IN ONE SYSTEM
EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH BUILT IN BLUETOOTH , WIFI & LOTS MORE
COMPLETE WITH KEY BOARD AND BLUETOOTH MOUSE
The Apple iMac G5 17-inch offers the same cool aesthetic as its 20-inch big brother, but in a more compact package. It has a speedy 1.8-GHz G5 processor and a brilliant, built-in 17-inch widescreen LCD panel. The system's 160GB of hard drive space is ready for digital photos and iTunes music, and there's a decent amount of preloaded software on board. Although the iMac G5 17-inch is the least expensive iMac, it is at the high end of our mainstream price scale (with monitor). You're paying a premium for the Apple cachet, industrial design, and extras (like Wi-Fi and iLife), but we still think it's worth the price.
The 17-inch iMac looks like a miniature version of the 20-inch iMac G5 that we recently tested. The 17-inch version has a slightly slower processor , a smaller hard drive, and a smaller screen. For some users, however, this is a small trade-off for a system that takes up less desk space
The iMac comes preloaded with the venerable ClarisWorks 6, which lets you work on Microsoft Office documents, and the World Book encyclopedia, which has many multimedia enhancements. The combination is ideal for school papers and projects. The iLife suite (iPhoto, iTunes, iMovie, GarageBand, and more) serves the budding Mapplethorpe or Spielberg by cataloging and burning digital photos and DV camcorder clips.
Apple chose to swap the DVD-R drive for a DVD/CD-RW combo drive, which limits the machine's video-burning capabilities.
The iMac G5 is potentially a one-wire system: The inclusion of 802.11b/g (AirPort) means that the iMac can connect to your wireless LAN, and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR lets you connect to wireless keyboards and mice. You can also use Bluetooth to sync the iMac with cell phones or PDAs. (The one wire that can't be eliminated is the power cable.)
The iMac G5's performance is similar to that of previous iMacs we've seen. Though Doom 3 was viewable (14 frames per second), if you're serious about 3D games, we'd recommend the more powerful Dual G5 PowerMac with an nVidia GeForce 6800 Ultra or other high-performance graphics card.
As of right now, there are no Mac OS X viruses. This might lead to a false sense of security, but for the time being spyware, viruses, adware, Trojan horses, and other malware are not huge concerns for Mac users. McAfee and Symantec both have antivirus clients for Mac OS X, but so far they're not the must-have utilities that they are on the Microsoft Windows platform. Security holes are another story: Make sure you set the Software Update control panel to check for updates at least weekly, since Apple, like Microsoft, acts quickly to patch the operating system when threats are found.
