Looks decent, but I don't think it will pose any threat to the iMac. Apple Insider has a bit more information. It seems that with the "comparable" models between the One and iMac, Apple actually has better prices and better hardware!
-
Hmm... maybe now that there's something to compare the iMac to people wont keep saying it's over priced.
Apple does an amazing job of fitting the most high end equipment into a very sleek package for a very reasonable price. On top of that you get a great OS, and spectacular customer support.
Anybody else immediately see the Jay Leno chin that apples been fighting so hard to remove in that Gateway? -
just from my point of view... I'd need to get the imac out of these two due to the amount of crap on my desk! I'd never get a CD/DVD in the drive without some serious reorganisation!!!!
-
What I do like about the Gateway One is more and easier user serviceability. Other than that, I'd say the iMac does the job much better in nearly every other category.

Only two ways I would get a Mac: I would get the iMac or Mac Mini for my parents, or I would get a Mac laptop. In the world of laptops, you throw user customization and upgradeability out the window with any choice, so why not go with a Mac? Especially if you like the OS and design. But when it comes to a desktop, I just couldn't conceivably purchase a desktop from anyone that I couldn't take apart and upgrade, repair myself. Thus being I would only buy an iMac for my parents, or if it was a really good buy (like the deal Vivek got on his). The Gateway One has a leg up there. But then again, it's also a Vista-based computer, so subtract both legs, and I guess I just wouldn't buy either one.
-
The Gateway One has more chin to its name.
-
Eh...
I'd be more willing to bite if this came from a company like....Asus... (although lately, what Asus has been doing hasn't been very encouraging).
Then again, I think every single notebook maker out there has failed abysmally with the DX10/SR refresh machines this time around...so maybe this'll be refreshing. -
The one in the kitchen is drawing power wirelessly.
-
That statement made me notice all the apples in the kitchen.
Hmmm, coincidence? -
I see a power cable hidden on its left and running behhind the apples backet?? Wireless power, I like that!
-
-
It kinda bugs me that the iMac doesn't come standard with a wireless keyboard, since half the point of AIOs is to reduce cable clutter. The competing AIOs have it standard....
Gateway One, huh?
