You know. The eMac is growing on me the more I look at it. The same thing happend with the new iMac, at firt I thought it was an absurdist sculpture, now I think it's cute. I saw one in person and the thing is simply awasome, Apple certainly has it's design asthetics down pat.
Anyway...
The new eMac is kind of cool. Especially for classrooms for which it was intended. But if teachers were afraid about kids breaking the new iMac's LCD screen (which BTW is VERY securely attached to the stem) I wonder how the teachers will react to little kids poking holes in those nifty speakers?
Didn't that prove to be a problem with the Quicksilvers? And even the Quicksliver's speakers are sunken in to a rather deep, 2 or three inch indentation. Imagine how tempting it is to poke those totaly exposed speakers on the eMac.
If anything, that was a careless choice.
