| Reviewed | Full Review |
|---|
The latest update to the eMac brings no fundamental changes to its design or price. However, it does introduce faster processors, doubled storage capacity, and new graphics cards. Unfortunately, this $799 model does not receive the boost in installed memory that the other eMac model has gotten.
Pros: Sturdy and attractive all-in-one design; decent performance; larger hard drive; improved graphics.
Cons: Bulky; inadequate memory; no wireless support; overpriced compared with Mac mini.
