What Customers Say About Apple iMac Desktop with 24" Display MA878LL/A (2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1 GB RAM, 320 GB Hard Drive, SuperDrive):

Storage is good, thought I would never run out but alas the more you have the more you use. maybe would have liked it more with a matte screen instead of shiny screen.
Great screen and colors. Some horizontal lines that appear from time to time on the background and sometimes on some windows - you must install a widget that controls (and increases) the speed of the fans. Fast.
Crashes every 5-10 minutes - uninstall Microsoft Office from the machine. The machine gets hot as some have mentioned, I guess because of the way it is built - everything enclosed in one box without much air circulation. It will solve 95% of the mysterious crashes I had to experience.2.
Superb machine. BUT.If you want to prevent 1. I have installed a freeware called smcfancontrol then increased the speed of ALL 3 fans by some 30% and the horizontal lines just disappeared.I think iMac does not crash now anymore.
Very. Quiet.
You start to use it. You've seen the ads. You take the plunge. DON'T FALL FOR THE ADVERTS.
Expect:* Higher 'click counts'* More random machine slow-downs* Infuriating random events (icons vanishing, other weird stuff.)., as - of course - the God-like Mac programmers know FAR more than you do about what you really want.* Incompatibilities.* Unsupported devices.If all you want to do is "oooh." and "aaah." at a big screen, or at a cool but trivial effect (eg Photobooth), then go buy one. I have already bought a replacement PC, and the Mac will be relegated to being a family-room web-browsing station. An experienced, technically competent PC user will find the Mac UI profoundly irritating. The finer points of UI design, the small-print of usability - well, the Windows operating system is simply far, far better.
the Mac "just works." out of the box. Only true if you have absolutely no clue what you are doing, and don't want to do much anyway. You've heard the accolades. You start to have doubts - "have I made a terrible error." Sadly, the answer is "yes."All that noise about how "user friendly" the Mac is.
I am not, but I enjoyed the set-up: nicely done.Then, you spend time with the machine. The first 24 hours are really pleasing. it is really good if you are a total tech-incompetent.
Merchant was great, shipping was extremely fast. I would completely recommend this for anyone. Great product, solid platform. I was skeptical at first, but I have been pleased with the performance so far.
Every single person who walks in to my office comes over to stare at it. Just amazing. They usually think it's just a "really nice monitor." Then I tell them, "No, that's the whole computer." Then they go back to their little Dell laptops and cry. I got tired of listening to my Mac mini's loud external drive. This thing is quiet, full of storage, has a beautiful screen and is overall amazing.
