Walt Mossberg of The Wall Street Journal has posted a column with his views on the Apple iMac G5. “We’ve been testing this new iMac, and our verdict is that it’s the gold standard of desktop PCs,” writes Mossberg. “To put it simply: No desktop offered by Dell or Hewlett-Packard or Sony or Gateway can match the new iMac G5’s combination of power, elegance, simplicity, ease of use, built-in software, stability and security. From setup to performing the most intense tasks, it’s a pleasure to use. And, contrary to common misconceptions, this Mac is competitively priced, when compared with comparably equipped midrange Windows PCs; and it handles all common Windows files, as well as the Internet and email, with aplomb.”
