Apple Power Mac G5 Desktop M9393LL/A (Dual 1.8-GHz PowerPC G5, 512 MB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, DVD-R/CD-RW Drive) Reviewed by (USA)
Satisfied Rating (6/10)
This is a good entry-level system, if the graphics are sub-par. Do not even think of buying something less powerful than the system or upgrade next year.
I really suggest trying to get a 2GHz G5, but 1.8 is good enough, if you're on a budget. 512 MB of RAM is good and the hard drive has plenty of space. But the graphics are disappointing: 64 MB GF5200? Graphics card with a value card! 128 GF5600 is the minimum * * You should go with (if they ever hope to play Doom3).

| Review by Go Clemson (USA) 2010-02-24 I have owned a Compaq prior. One thing I do not like is the DVD tray. When it opens, you have trouble pushing the button to get the thing to close again.

| Review by John Halloran (SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO) 2010-02-22 HP TouchSmart 600 review. I can only blame myself for buying something trendy and cool looking. Flys and bugs are attracted to the screen and can open docs by landing on it so if you live in the country this is not the PC for you. What a hassle. Also I purchased 2 of these and 1 of the screens is dr... Read more reviews | ||
