Anyone ordered the new iMac G5 from apple.com ?

What your Est. Shipping Date ?

Mine is sept. 30th, which is now pretty close, considering I placed my order on august 31st!

Just one more week and it should be near me!

/me is excited.

I already started looking for a new desk too. I can't put that thing on an old ugly desk!

Anybody else picked one up at a local Apple store ?

The ones nearby don't have any yet...

One would have expected shots & benchmarks on Neowin by now. :) Almost 10 days after they started shipping...

Lucky asses... I dcant stand Macs... I love teh sleek iMac look tho... I'd like to find a way to keep some parts like case and monitor and install Debian on it (including Winblows)

If you can't stand Macs then why are you posting on the Mac section of Neowin :rofl: go troll someplace else please.

Mouton congratulations on the iMac :D

i love it how they call the delay "unexpected". they clearly expect the delays, because it happens with every mac product that ever comes out (bar the cube and newton :p )

if the dude who dont like macs just installs linux on the mac he wouldnt know it was a mac ( well... yae know ). i have a friend who buys a mac and installs linux on it.

It doesn't matter what OS is on the computer, it will always be a Macintosh

Man...went into compusa today. Saw the new lcd screens (sweet mother those things rock)...saw the new imacs...17" to be exact, they are even uglier in person than they are in pics. IMHO

f***ers... they changed the est. shipping date without notifying me this time!

Est. Ship

On or before 10/13/2004

GRRRRR!!!

I feel with you! ;)

The same happened to me when I bought my AirPort Express. Est. Shipment was changed from 3 days too 5 weeks!

Hold on, you will get it someday! :yes:

well i use every year a road map. for this year i had an amd 64 , an raptor 10k and a x800 planed . i bought every thing exept the raptor 10 k rpm and the x800 but i will have it next month so.Instead of the hard disk i have an ipod 20 gb g4:)

on the next year roadmap i have planed a g5 imac:D

i hope i goes like this years roadmap:D

Man...went into compusa today. [...] saw the new imacs...17" to be exact, they are even uglier in person than they are in pics.  IMHO

I guess it's a question of personnal preferences...

Most people think it's good looking.

Anyone saw numbers on iMac G4 vs iMac G5 sales ?

Do they sell better / as much / less ..?

    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Looks almost like what our office provides us, excluding the leg rest for obvious reasons 😴
    • Forget the iPhone. What about Android? Most Samsung Galaxy phones sold in the USA are manufactured in Vietnam. Asian countries have the infrastructure that the USA doesn't have. This is why most electronics are not made in the USA
    • The RAM would still probably be more expensive than what they were paying last year.
