Simple, cheap, powerful ... and aesthetically brilliant.

I wouldn't be surprised if the reason why the competition designs such garbage is because Apple sends them fake documents of their "New Project X" and Dell immediately rushes to production. "Boys this is it, Apple is going down!" (via hipcheq)

The new iMacs are out today, and they're looking nicer than ever. Apple has gone all aluminum with the new models, giving them a thinner and more professional look. The small 17" screen has been dropped, leaving only 20" and 24" models, and you can now get up to 4GB of RAM and 1TB of hard disk (although Apple really jacks up the price if you want to go top of the line). There's a sleek new Apple keyboard too.

These look really tempting. If I were buying today, I would go for a 24" first, then upgrade to 2GB of RAM and see if I had anything left over for a hard drive upgrade. But I think I'll hold off until Leopard ships (should be only a few months now) and I'm also keeping my fingers crossed for a new Mac mini style device (since I already have a decent LCD).

One more thing - Apple also announced Numbers, a new spreadsheet program that's part of iWork '08. Robert Scoble gave it a good review, and I welcome any serious effort to reintroduce some competition into the Office market. Conspiracy alert! - I wonder if this has anything to do with the Apple software upgrade that crashed my MS Office last weekend?

Not only is this the sexiest machine you'll ever work on (until they create a newer model) it is a truly powerful piece of hardware. And it just looks cool on my desk!

Apple still builds the most stylish computers.

Very small, light and compact.

Mac makes the best computers. Works flawlessly. Great design too, and takes up very little space on a crowded desk! (via tenacioustoys.com)
