I just got home from my newbie sister's apartment, who only a month ago insisted on buying a Windows PC. She bought an Emachines Celeron system (she was on a very tight budget). Well, the audio out minijack has become defective. One side doesn't work properly now. I tried some walkman headphones in the jack and the same behaviour was exhibited, so it's not the speaker cable. Now, "i" think that's "Crap"! Whoever termed the iMac as crap better put his brain in gear before his mouth, because besides casting such aspersions within a user group who loves Macs (surprise surprise), the iMac DOES provide a viable choice for a large sector of the computer buying public. As a professional content creator, it's not for me. But if one takes one's head out of one's belly button, one would see that there are others who use computers in different ways for different reasons. I believe Apple's bottom line would attest to this. GG PS: having said the above, I in no way want to assert that Apple is infallible.
