Epinions Recent Reviews for iMac

iMac: Decent computer, but horrible support from Apple far outweighs that

Thu, 5 Jun 2003 01:37:43 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author kublaikhan - While my iMac is now functioning reasonably well, my experience with this supposedly take-it-out-of-the-box-and-go computer and the "support" staff at Apple cause me to not recommend this. Just like a 4-star restaurant: if the food is excellent but the...

iMac: Intresting, wonder what Nirav Tolia thinks?

Thu, 14 Sep 2000 00:16:29 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author miss45459 - Just today Sept. 13, 2000 as I was doing my office drone duties I noticed a magazine "smartbusinessmag.com" The cover said "dot.com scams" I couldn't resist I had to read it. The first thing I noticed was the word epinions.com &...

iMac: For shame!

Mon, 31 Jul 2000 19:43:12 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author iBen - This was one of the first commercials I've ever seen for Epinions.com. Frankly, before I saw this commercial, I was very interested in what people told me about Epinions.com. However, this commercial nearly turned me away from this site completely. I...

iMac: The format ruined it...

Sat, 15 Jul 2000 07:16:56 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Al00 - While I agree that Jay has some points that are completely valid, I also think that this commercial made him out to be a person who is ani-macintosh.

Shooting the iMac was also kind of out of line and not totally appropriate. This, to me,...

iMac: How Embarassing

Mon, 3 Jul 2000 15:02:58 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Slanina1 - Remember a few years back when some marketing genius decided to blow up the clown on a comercial? They probably thought it was cute. They probably thought that it would boost sales. They were wrong. I remember hearing stories about children having...

iMac: My 8 year old son's opinion.

Wed, 31 May 2000 17:51:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mrcpu - After reading several of the opinions I decided to ask my 8 year old son what he thought of the ad. Here is what he said:

"I thought it was funny but the shooting parts were bad"

Why where the shooting parts bad?
...

iMac: Bye bye iMac

Tue, 30 May 2000 22:37:23 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Dew9993 - I first saw the ad from the site using Realplayer, because I have never seen it on the tv. Right away I liked the commercial!

First off, I like the fact that the Epinions.com guys use an ACTUAL epinion and the ACTUAL person who wrote it! I...

iMac: JAY SUCKS!!

Mon, 29 May 2000 13:53:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author dvgkbh - Hello. I am writing this on vbehalf of the hundreds of upset epinioners.

Do you know why they stopped showing people smoking cigarettes on T.V.? Because children and teenagers thought the people smoking looked cool and they wanted to be like...

iMac: Product=No,Execution=Yes

Sun, 28 May 2000 15:01:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dquack - I didn't like the commercial (product wise),not because of it's execution but for the product.I am an avid mac lover.Yet the way the commercial was made was good.It accomplished it's mission,people watched the commercial.I wonder how many people say the...

iMac: bad ad!!

Sat, 27 May 2000 00:12:30 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Moorestown - This is a very violant ad! Do you know why they stopped showing people smoking cigarettes on T.V.? Because children and teenagers thought the people smoking looked cool and they wanted to be like them. Let Me Repeat Myself More and more children and...

iMac: A Concept, But Not a Commercial

Fri, 26 May 2000 05:26:14 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author CATSocialD - This was a brilliant concept for a commercial. It's clever and attention grabbing while still saying something about the product (Epinions). It's just edgy enough to seem cool to our target audience (the computer savvy, usually twenties and younger)...

iMac: Lighten up!

Fri, 26 May 2000 01:28:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Streetcar - This is a great commercial. This isn't some sort of statement commercial that is secretly funded by the NRA. Lighten up! I actually learned stuff about the IMAC that helps me decide whether or not I would like to buy one. Epinions isn't the place for...

iMac: Awful Commercial

Sat, 20 May 2000 20:22:44 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author TheSteve - I do not like this commercial in the least. The iMac is an awesome computer in my opinion (in fact, it SWITCHED my opinion from PC to Mac), and it is dirt cheap, too. For $1000 bucks or less, you can't get a decent PC. With the iMac, you get service,...

iMac: My thoughts Exactly!!

Mon, 8 May 2000 17:21:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author djsplendid - Oh man, this commercial rules! You have GOT TO AIR THIS its absolutely the funniest thing ive seen in a long time (i hate mac's incessantly!)

If i had never heard of Epinions I would DEFINITELY check it out after seeing that commercial. Just...

iMac: BAD idea

Sun, 30 Apr 2000 16:42:42 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author fivetonine - This commercial is in extremely poor taste. I'm sure the reason this is even being discussed has to do with all of the recent school shootings.

Add to that the flurry of livery cab drivers who have been shot during their tours in New York...

iMac: Completely Irrelevant

Thu, 27 Apr 2000 15:53:55 GMT

rating: 0/5 by: Epinions Author dancip - I really don't like this TV Ad. For one, it shows nothing about the website Epinions and gives it a bad name by using this opinion to sponsor it. Another thing is you can't even hear the guy talk about the Imac and how he feels about it. All it is is gun...

iMac: Uhh????

Wed, 19 Apr 2000 17:00:02 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author BlonbabyDawn - Ok, so the man doesn't like iMac? So what? He gave nothing of importance that any of us would ever care about. Just telling us not to get it because of the speakers and the colors? Not because of performance. Ok...well this commercial had absolutely...

iMac: And your point is?

Tue, 18 Apr 2000 11:49:22 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author jerlay - Cool idea, but what's your point. Ripping it off your desk, carring it to your drive way and backing over it repeatedly with your car would have shown your frustrations alot more. Besides, do we want our children percieving that if we don't like...

iMac: I don't get it.

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 10:00:08 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Miss_JDK - After reviewing this commercial, I was left thinking that it was an advertisement for a computer company in competition with Apple. I had no idea that it was designed to lure people to the Epinions site until I read the actor's comments. If I were...

iMac: Has Already Achieved Most Marketing Objectives

Thu, 13 Apr 2000 16:35:39 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Wayne_Schaffel - Like an unreleased movie that garners an NC-17 rating -- the controversy over whether to release theiMac ad "as is" has generated a significant amount of coverage. The reality for epinions is that they have created a memorable, controversial,...

iMac: The violence will get the attention

Wed, 12 Apr 2000 13:17:15 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author mommy2jonny98 - Well I watched the Breast Pump commercial. I hated it, but decided to give Epinions another chance to earn back my respect. So I figured I should watch another commercial before I totally decided that maybe Epinions should give up and not make...

iMac: I want an iMac Shootin' range!

Tue, 11 Apr 2000 23:21:19 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lovely_zelda - I love this ad! I first saw it at adcritic.com, then immediately e-mailed it to all my friends. Okay, maybe it's because I hate Apple computers with a passion, but still, it's a great ad! Okay, maybe it would be better if he was skeet shooting with...

iMac: great stuff

Tue, 11 Apr 2000 02:21:13 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author lipkun - Word for word I agree with what he says. The iMac idea was great, great marketing not great engineering. Its success shows how important packaging is in the world today. If you're looking for raw power you've come to the wrong place, try a coppermine or...

iMac: No they didn't!?!?!?

Mon, 10 Apr 2000 19:42:05 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author sassycoll - The title sums up how I feel. Did someone really spend money on this commercial? I hope not. I like epinions, but I wouldn't check out based on a commercial that shows some moron taking his aggression out on an imac. (Yeah, it really makes me feel safe...

iMac: Amusing, to the right audience

Mon, 10 Apr 2000 13:51:40 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author VPandora - The one comment I have about showing gun use in this commercial, is that it is at least in a shooting range, being used properly and under supervision. Showing a guy shooting an iMac off of a fence would be a little worse...

As an adult who...
