(please excuse my late reply -- I was in the path of Hurricane Charley and am just now catching up)From: Fran Mack <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I plan to buy a new iMac. I need the large monitor due to vision problems. I
would like to hear pros and cons of the 20-inch iMac. I had a 333mhz iMac at
one time. I liked it but the monitor was too small.
Pro: It's a stunningly beautiful screen, and Mac OS X has all kinds of options, from enlarging the icon/font size to Universal Access' zooming and colour reversal, to help people with vision problems such as yourself.
Con: The 20-inch iMac is increasingly hard to find, since the current iMac line has been discontinued and the new G5-based ones will not appear until September.
If your need is urgent, check local Apple Stores and CompUSAs, which should still have some (very limited) stock. If you can wait a few weeks, I would suggest you do so just so you can see what Apple will come up with for their G5 version of the iMac.
In the meantime, if you still have a Mac running OS X, try visiting the Universal Access preference pane and see if there's anything there that helps you.
