Why I will send back my brand new iMac...

Animalk said:
I switched over two years ago and I had the exact same sentiment as the OP regarding my mac experience. The mouse acceleration was not what I was used to, somewhat delayed and the GUI(Graphical User Interface) of the OS is not as instant as Windows.

I agree to this day that what the OP is describing is very real. I work all day on Windows machines at work and I use my mac at home.

But I have learned to accept it. Otherwise I would be missing out on too many good things the mac experience has to offer.

First of all, I will address the mouse acceleration curve. Yes it's not windows smooth and its not as responsive. The Delay is there. There is no denying it and there are many reasons why its like this and I will only touch on a couple.

The acceleration curve has graphic artists in mind. Apple made a compromise by allowing the mouse to travel at low speed for a bit longer then in Windows to accommodate any kind of jerkiness or mistaken movement of one's mouse while doing precise work in a very small area of the screen. I am not a graphic artist and I wish I could turn this off. I would pay good money to have a mouse cursor in OS X that felt like Windows or most Linux distributions.

Also, Mac OS X has a mouse cursor that I believe is somewhat aware of the objects around it. I like to call it a magnetic cursor. I have never seen any official statement from Apple (or anyone for that matter) that such a feature exists in OS X but I am quite confident it exists. Buttons, sliders, URL links and menus will actually pull your mouse cursor towards them. This is extremely subtle and is almost unnoticeable by the user unless you move your mouse very slowly around such objects. Then you will see it jump slightly towards the object by a couple of pixels. This feature often gives the mouse cursor a jumpy and/or jerky feel at very low speed.

Now let's move on to the "heavy" feel of the GUI. This is due to to two main things in the design of OS X:

The first being that OS X will not draw a window for you on screen until it is completely drawn in memory. In windows, you often open a window or menu and you see things get drawn onto the screen one at a time in front of you. That's because they have not been drawn in memory yet and Windows is just giving what it has when you ask for it. OS X is different in the sense that it won't give you what you asked for until it is completely ready and drawn in memory. So there is always that fraction of a second delay while OS X handles this. This is the same idea as the "Vertical Sync" graphical setting often used in video games.

The Second reason, which you may not understand (and I don't blame you), is that OS X is heavily object oriented due to the underlying NextStep design. I will not go into details because I could spend all day trying to explain this to non-programmers. But essentially, this makes every component on screen larger in memory and one component may need to talk to several other components before being able to talk to the one it wants.

This second reason was much more noticeable on the PPC machines and the very first intel machines but with the memory speeds that are out now, it should be a non-issue.

What I did about it:

I found that high precision Mice, like my Logitech G5, would accentuate the differences of the mouse movement in OS X relative to Windows. I ended up finding the Mighty Mouse to be the mouse that made the cursor behavior the most bearable.

I also agree that the mouse movement on the trackpads is heavenly. This got me thinking and when I move the cursor with the mouse, and imagine that the mouse is on a large trackpad, i realize that there is no difference. I don't know but often things are all about perception I guess.

As for the heavy GUI, I just accepted it. If something is not up on the screen its because its not ready and if it was on the screen before its ready, i'd be waiting for things to get ready anyways.

Sorry for the wall of text but I hope this helps you in making an informed decision.

Good luck!

Thanks for your message, you explained everything very well.
The guy from TNT came this morning at my place and took my iMac.
I called Apple on Friday and now the iMac is already gone. I have never seen a customer care as good as Apple's.

Now, I think I'll buy the Dell Studio XPS Desktop. Here is what I would get for the same price:
Pentium Core 2 Duo 2,93 GHz
Windows Vista 64 bits
Microsoft Office 2007 Family and Student
24'' screen
1.5 TB Hard Disk Drive
12GB of RAM!
ATI Radeon 4870
Blu-ray writer/reader + CD/DVD

It looks like this (but the screen will be far bigger):
desktop-studio-xps-435.jpg


So, a Blu-ray reader + writer, 500GB more of HDD, 4GB of more RAM... all of that for the same price.

Yes, the design is not as good. Some will say that there is iLife on a Mac, but I use professional software for this.

Anyway, I will take a smaller configuration and save money. I just wanted to compare.

That's a nice system, but the little boast about Blu-Ray is somewhat pointless since I personally think it's a silly inclusion to put in a PC with a screen of such a size. Sure you could hook the tower up to a projector, but I'll settle for my 70" projection screen and standalone player for my Blu-Ray needs ... I think it ridicules the format by stifling it inside a PC tower, or any computer.

I personally like the Bluray in my Sony and my wife's HP. We connect to the 42" LCD screens at every Hyatt place we stay at and at friends homes as well as our own HDTVs. We only have one PS3 and use the laptops for Bluray connections for everything else.

Apple needs to get with the Bluray program!

You actually use the button ribbon in Office 2007? Wow thats the slowest, most painful way to get anything done. Use the quick access toolbar to save your most used functions and you will be more productive and much more like Office 2008 for Mac.
 
This post was hilarious to read. Typically thats because someone like the OP comes in, says what he says and the trolls come out the woodwork. Its refreshing to see people eloquently, but not succinctly, argue their own points.

Still...mouse acceleration? (wont even touch the other ludicrous things a switcher only notices and actually misses)

Cant put my mind around this one, no matter how anyone has described it.

I use WinXP 8hrs a day on a P.O.S dell mouse and go home to my 24" imac and logitech mouse. I feel absolutely no difference in anything. :mad: :confused:
 
Regarding the original post, I can't disagree with you more on every point including your passion for MS Office. Of course, I always snicker when I drive past the local Olive Garden and there are people lined up out the door. This was the case last Friday and I commented to my wife about how much better any one of a dozen local places are. She reminded me that some people just have bad taste. That same theory can be applied to anything from food, to cars, to PC's.
 
I am going to make the switch to Mac soon.

I read every post in this thread. I still don't understand what the hell is a mouse curve. I went to Mac store about 10 times and I never noticed any difference on either iMac's mighty mouse (except that I hate the feel in the hand and that I will use my logitech mouse for sure instead) or macbook's trackpad. Everything feels the same as my ThinkPad (I loled at the Fn complaint, really... been using this laptop for 5 years and I just noticed it was there) or any desktop pc's I ever used.

As for the dead pixel, I am very very scared of getting a stupid dead pixel. I almost cryed when I bought my Nintendo DS and saw 1 dead pixel and that I couldn't switch it for a correct one (and it only cost 100$). What will I do when I will buy my 1500$ MacBook or 2500$ iMac (CDN $) if it got a dead pixel? I certainly will not say it is okay. Dead pixels tend to be the only thing I see on a screen.

So considering your situation, I would certainly return the iMac, but not for the mouse problem. It would be for the 1k$ you payed for stupid 8 gig ram and the dead pixels.

As for the Dell XPS, it looks real nice! But I really want to make the move to Mac. I'm going to buy a macbook for my girlfriend (waiting for back to school and gonna keep the free iPod touch for me :)). I'm really considering buying a iMac and make the transition with her. Problem is I'm a full time student and that I've been working 50 hours a week for a month to afford the MacBook. Not sure if I want to do another month of crazy not sleeping hard working/studying for a iMac that seems to have more flaws then the bad actor says on TV.

End of rant. To those who didn't read my post I will summarize by saying good choice on the return, because you will have a chance to buy another iMac with less ram and no dead pixels.

Most people don't actually notice the difference.
People who use the mouse for detailed/perfectionist work are usually the ones to notice because after subconsciously training yourself to manoeuvre a mouse with such precision you are bound to notice such a change. The same can be said for using someone else's computer with different mouse setting though (although if its win-win you can more easily adjust to the speed they use).

I may be a Mac beginner, but I think there is chance the OP could be a mega numpty. To return an iMac because the mouse feels wrong, then 'OS X feels heavy'? I've used the 2009 iMac 24" with the 4850 and it's the fastest computer I've ever used a prime example of 'Your hardware is only as good as your OS allows it to be.'

ROFL. OP Chose a Dell. Epic /facepalm.

I use a Dell with Windows XP from 9-5pm everyday and come home to a mac mini, I never notice a difference. If the OP notices a difference with the mouse and a heavy OS it is his right as a consumer to return his purchase, whether we like it or not lol

UrFatMom: buy what you can afford, its not worth being broke for a computer
 
Mouse acceleration (or lack of) is different. But you get over it within a few weeks or never notice it. It's not better or worse. It's just different.

You can always get pcs at the same specs for cheaper especially if you aren't buying an all-in-one and buying a tower instead and want a gaming gpu.

Specs though never tell the whole story. And to buy only on specs is out dated in this day and age.

The appeal of the Apple experience isn't based much on having the best specs. The appeal of an iMac is the clean compact all-in-one design on the hardware side and OS/X and company on the software side and the integration of the software and hardware.

Your 12gb of memory and 500gb extra hd space on the Dell you chose won't provide you with that.

I can see how the Dell would be a better choice for some. Certainly for pcgamers a Mac isn't the best choice. And if a pcgamer needed a machine I wouldn't recommend a Mac with my first suggestion.

Ironic though that MS has let pcgaming go by focusing on the Xbox and 360 first and foremost. And the need for a big gpu to pcgame isn't there like it once was. Crysis was released nearly 2 years ago and no game released since needs as much gpu power. Pcgaming seems to be morphing into a less cutting edge gpu-tech spec focused design that can run on a wider number of machines. This favors the Mac as a gaming machine going forward compared to the past.
 
sorry for the offtopic,

@Aucun Express

can you post the link of that dell
 
This is viral marketing at it's finest (worst) ... this whole iMac return never happened, b/c it was never purchased. The issues the OP complained of could have been experienced by sitting down in front of an iMac inside a store, or perhaps this is what he feels might strike a chord with others considering the switch from Windows.

In the end, the OP gives us the same ad campaign strategy we're seeing lately, i.e., here's how much "more" I could have gotten for what I paid for my iMac.

His whole post was an ad for another slice of D(H)ell.
And it seems to be generating interest already!

Nice work Microsoft

Now there's a unique way of dismissing this.

Mighty mouse and SteerMouse

I have been a mac user for over a decade and I have to agree that, out of the box, the mouse settings in osx are inadequate. It really needs to have an acceleration curve setting. I now use SteerMouse and this gives you the control that is required. There is something very sluggish about the standard system curve that cannot be fixed by just increasing the speed, and this program fixes that. I do really hope they provide this fix in osx soon though as it is a bit unreasonable to have to pay to get a basic UI functionality to work properly.

The MightyMouse gets a lot of criticism but with SteerMouse I am now very happy with it. It does have the advantage of being very light weight and quite small which (for me at least) reduced fatigue and the possibility of RSI. The scrollball will keep working just fine if is cleaned sometimes but this is only natural since it is a mechanical system. The side buttons absolutely need to be redesigned, but despite these issues I would have to say that the MM is the best mouse I have ever used.

The other solution is third party mice with third party drivers (MS Intellimouse gave me good results previously).

First of all, I was the first one to laugh at the two or three lame ads by Microsoft about those whores getting money on the sidewalk for buying a crappy computer.
If you want my opinion about Microsoft, I think that this is a pretty bad company. Everything about their company is just a big mess. They do too many things and none of their product is perfect.
I prefer 100 times a company like Apple who does a few dozens of things but in an intelligent way from A to Z.
You can simply look at Microsoft's Website in order to see how much they are messy.
I also don't like Steve Ballmer. I saw him once in Boston and he's like on those YouTube videos. Everytime he talks about Apple, he is plain pathetic. I remember him mocking the iPhone when it started, saying that no one would buy a phone for that price. Then talking to that Asian guy (the former Mac Evangelist if I'm not mistaking) about the MacBook Air. And I don't even talk about "developers, developers, developers, developers". He's not funny... at all. And his way of seeing the IT and the world is, simply put, wrong.
Microsoft needs a new management team and a good one. They need someone like Steve Jobs. They need to focus on a few products with care, like they did with Windows 7.
I sometimes go to the Microsoft TechDays because of my work and everytime I'm just looking in the sky and thinking "WTF!?". Watching thousands of IT guys laughing about jokes about Windows Server 2008 or stuff like that. Everything about the server management is complicated. They think that they are intelligent and that the Apple world suck, but they don't understand that simplicity is the only solution to everything.
They laugh at the Mac world, but they don't understand the beauty of a Time Machine concept, for instance.
And as Steve Jobs said years ago, "They just have no taste". At all.
Office 2007 and Windows 7 are the two only products when I thought "I want it." Other than that, I never loved any of their product.
When we migrated to Windows Vista at work (I didn't choose it), it was a nightmare. Other than plenty of crashes a day, when I wanted to shut down my computer, it would try to install (in a loop) some automated updates. And then it wasn't possible to log in anymore. So, in the end, my working computer was on 24/7. Nice for the environment...
This is during the Vista era that I discovered Mac OS X. And when you see it on video, you just want it. I needed it. I thought about it for months and then I finally bought an iMac. When I opened the box, it wasn't like receiving a computer. I remember when I first received my Dell. I was like "Okay, so let's work with it." The feeling while unboxing the iMac was completely different.

That being said, OS X doesn't look responsive to me. I use a Dell laptop from 2004 with a Pentium M (!) 1.73GHz and 1GB of RAM and Windows still looks more responsive than my iMac with 3.06GHz and 8GB of RAM. Of course, I don't say that programs didn't open faster. Of course Photoshop opened itself way faster than on my old laptop. But the way it feels is really slower than a Windows OS. Animatalk explained it very well.
And yes I've experienced the mouse thing at the many Apple Stores I went, but I thought that it was just me and that changing the settings would fix it, I would never thought that it would be impossible to have the same mouse settings than on a PC.

Then, I'll answer about the "you get more" thing. As I said, I thought that the latest ads were really bad. Microsoft should talk about what they do (Windows, Office) instead of about what you can buy because of their monopoly (which has nothing to do with their product).
But, depending of who you are, you get "more". If you are in a family and that you are not an IT pro, I really think that the iMac (with the slowest config) is the perfect choice. I mean, it is beautiful, it is very simple to use, and everything is inside of it already (except for the word processor). iLife is enough for a family. I mean, photos, videos, music, Internet, you can do all those things on an iMac, without buying anything more.
I am a pro with Photoshop, I do some video montages and I play music. So iLife is not for me. I need the professional tools.
So, whether I'm on Windows or Mac, I need the same tools, which is the Adobe Creative Suite.
So, if I pay $4,500 for an iMac with some specs and that I get far more specs for the same price with another, what is the difference for me?
There is the design thing. I will be very clear. I do think that design is a part of any product and that we should pay more for a high standard design. All my collegues laugh at me and buy crappy things, but I really think that design is important. At least it is in my life. I buy $1,000 Hugo Boss suits and I have no problem with it.
So, I think that we should pay a little more for an iMac because the design is amazing, compared to the competition. The level of finition is totally different. Just look at the MacBook video and compare it to all the crap on the market (Dell studio laptops, Dell inspiron laptops, all the IBM ****, all the Acer ****, etc.).
But that said, I think that we can compare if we find some good looking computers. And I love the Dell Studio XPS design, whether it is the desktop (as shown before), or the laptop:
xps13_main.jpg

Sony is also doing some nice things with the Vaio's.
And there is something that I find lame on the Macs. Get the damn HDMI. If you don't want to pay the money, make the customers pay it. I'll pay it. I don't care about the MiniDisplayPort. No one is using it.

We can also compare the software, and yes we should pay a little more for BootCamp, Time Machine, Exposé and other great features of OS X. But in the end, I don't think that we should pay that much for a Mac, the difference is really huge. A 10% or 20% increase should be more than enough.

But even though, I don't care about the price. Of course I care like everyone else, but what I mean is that I bought a $4,500 Macintosh and I don't play games or anything that would need that much RAM. But I wanted the ultimate computer with the ultimate OS and the ultimate design.
I had the ultimate design, but I didn't had the ultimate OS, from my perspective.
Some will say "You returned a Mac because of the mouse?". Well, this is just the tool that is the most important when you use your computer. SteerMouse didn't fix the issue, the Logitech mouse didn't fix the issue.
Then, I use MS Office every day and I think that the PC version is far better and I can understand that someone doesn't share my opinion on this.

Aahhh- and now we see that you get paid by the word for your viral marketing. ;)
 
Well, if that was the case, I wouldn't tell you that many comments say that this laptop gets too hot, that it's plain stupid to have three different video port (including the minidisplayport), that it's even more stupid to have two audio out, and that it comes with Windows ******* Vista. Also, the fans are behind the computer, but when you open the screen the air comes up in front of the screen.
Nothing compared to the beauty of the unibody MacBook.

Anyway, I've received an e-mail from Apple a few hours ago, saying that I will receive my money back in 5 to 7 days.
