|---|
The 1.25GHz eMac is an impressive computer that holds its own against the pricier iMac, and the lowered price makes the top-of-the-line eMac even more appealing.
Pros: Excellent value; impressive game and application performance; the high-end eMac includes the same SuperDrive that's in the Power Mac G5 line.
Cons: Bulky CRT monitor; no FireWire 800 port.
