Strengths: Fast, powerful, Quad-core
Weakness: Price, wish it had more memory "standard"
I am a typical Windows user but I'm starting to dabble in the world of Mac. I wanted a good system to use and learn new software in the Mac interface, and this was the system I decided on. I plan to use it for both work and play. I've only been using it for a bit over a week, but this thing is a beast. It runs faster than any system I've used. I haven't run into any trouble yet, but I'm still...
Strengths: Everything
Weakness: None
I bought this unit 3 days ago and still haven't had enough of it. The entire unit is just perfect. Very quiet, very very fast. I use if for Digital photography, VM Fusion with 5 other operating systems. Xeon processing power worth every penny. This is true computing power. I love MAC products. They really put their heart and soul into their engineering and design. If you have the money, go for...
Strengths: super fast processing speed, quiet, lots of room for expansion
Weakness: expensive RAM, crappy mouse, bug that causes the computer to automatically reboot when it goes into sleep more for over an hour
I had been using a 24in 2.16 iMac Core 2 Duo for about 5 months and it just wasn't up to par with the work I was doing. I'm a graphic designer who needs to have lots of design applications running at the same time and the iMac just didn't have enough memory or processing power. After months suffering through Photoshop moving like a snail, I knew I had to upgrade to a Mac Pro but wanted to wait...
Strengths: MAC IS WAY OVERRATED. I'VE OWNED 4 (QUAD CORE, G4,G5 AND POWER BOOK) POWER BOOK WAS MUCH BETTER FOR THE MONEY THEN THIS HIGH PRICED TUNA FISH CAN!
Weakness: UPDATES CRASH COMP & GIVE KERNAL VIRUS. YOU MUST PAY MAC TO UNDO IT FOR YOU. DOESN'T WORK WELL WITH OTHER PROGRAMS THAT WERE NOT CREATED ($$$)BY MAC. MY PRO TOOLS 8 KEEPS SHUTTING DOWN.
WHEN I CALL MAC CUSTOMER SERVICE, I GET SOME HEAVY ACCENT WITH AN ATTITUDE BECAUSE I CANT MAKE OUT WHAT THEY ARE SAYING.WHEN YOU HAVE COMP TROUBLE AND YOU CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE, THE LAST THING YOU WANNA DO IS BE LOST IN TRANSLATION BECAUSE YOUR CALL IS REROUTED TO PAKISTAN! IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE A MAC, DON'T FEEL LEFT OUT. APPLE DOES A GREAT JOB OF PROMOTING THESE THINGS BUT AFTER HAVING 4 OF...

Can't beat it
Strengths: Speed, never crashes, expandability, quiet, powerful, OSX, build quality
Weakness: power consumption, but you can't have all that good stuff and do away with power consumption.
I've had this machine for a year and its still better and faster than any windows machine I've ever played with. Add Mac OSX and your cooking. I don't understand why anyone would want to boot into Windows OS for regular day to day computing. Just about any program now is made to work with OSX. I am heavy into graphics and photography, nothing slows this thing down. The case is heavy, 45 lbs. but...
