iMac clone no more...

To this day, I don't get what's so great about the iMac. I think it's great that Apple is making headlines all over the world with the machine, but let's face it, it's at best a mediocre machine with color and weird shape. But obviously, that sells. It cost Henry Ford the position as number one car maker in America to realize that consumers like color; PC makers have yet to get it. Actually, some did get it, like the Daewoo, eMachines, and Sotec. Well, they sort of got it. Remember the E-Power and the eOnes? Well, Apple sued the makers of these machines pathetically trying to imitate the successes of the iMac. Similar color, similar design, similar name, not the same result. This link gives the aftermath of the lawsuit.
