"Best thing ever"
What I like:
Most powerful 8-core computer available and it is a mac.
What I don't like:
none
Review:
I own the 8-core version of this product and I must admit that I find in the best mac I have ever owned. I have had a PowerMac G5 and an Intel Core 2 Duo iMac, as well as a powerbook g4 and 2 MacBook Pros and this by far out shines them all. First off the power that this machine has is unbelievable. Never slows down or stalls. Always ready for more. I have used it to render movies, rip cds, build web sites, folding@home, everything and it just is perfect. If you are a power user then this is the mac for you.

Apple iMac (27-inch, unibody, 2009)
Although not much faster than its predecessor, the LED-backlit display and spec tweaks are welcome
ViewSonic VPC100
Not particularly exciting, but it's cheap and offers a relatively large display for a nettop
Dell Studio XPS 435
Despite some missing features, it's a decent all-rounder, and it looks good for a Dell desktop too
