[Cube] Confession...

[Stefan]

Hi Luis,

you don't know it, but I've never used a Win (or any other) computer.
I'm a real Mac user since the SE/30 or LC (in megalith-times of Apple :-)

But I'm no evangelist of Apple or Mac.
The germans say: "Let the church stay in the 
village", what means don't tell stories, tell the 
truth.

So I'm not lucky with Apple building computers 
with weak points and in fact the story of the 
iMac Intel 20" Alu is a sad story. Although my 
sources are german, I just found an english one:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/04/01/apple_imac_class_action/

You could take the google tour perhaps with "iMac Intel 20" no million colors?"

So I'm sad to disappoint you.
In this case Apple is a lyer.

I regretŠ :-(

Take the 24" model, this is capable and has a 
better screen too (but of course it is remarkable 
more expensive)

Stefan
