computer has everything you could possibly need! It&rsquos quick and efficient, so you can use any application, including the Mac OS X v10.4.10 Tiger operating system, and it sets new standards for power and performance. Each component has been scrupulously designed by Apple to make sure you get a system that exceeds your expectations.

The iMac even comes with an iSight webcam, which has been neatly built into the top of the screen so you can chat on the Internet and take instant photos. You&rsquoll also be able to chill out to music and control your iMac from the comfort of your favourite armchair using the Apple Remote. Enter into the new age of multimedia with the iMac from Apple!

Advantages: All in one super fast PC for those lacking space Disadvantages: lack of ability to change parts, can only upgrade the RAM. price tag i suppose.
...back this mac on the apple finance 6 month interest free MBNA deal and I have to say I love this mac! If i didn't had a girlfriend, i would take this to bed with me to keep me warm! this originally cost me £1200 from apple but you can buy refurbished ones from the apple.com/uk site under the store. i bought the apple care extended warranty but my feeling is i never will have to apple things rarely break down. It is almost as sexy dare I say. LOL. ... ...to right which is superb, apple think of everything. the wireless/wired ethernet settings are easy to set up, simply enter your password/wep key and you are onto the home network. OSX Leopard is soon to arrive in October which will be fantastic with the addition of the time machine which lets you recover old files (photos,movies etc) that you deleted by mistake. This mac comes with frontrow and a apple remote which sticks neatly to the right side ...

...allowed me to try the Apple brand without spending too much money.
I loved the Apple product so much that after 12 months of using the Mac Mini I went out and bought an iMac 20" 2.16Ghz core 2 duo. I love it!
My mac mini had OSX Panther installed and now I have OSX Tiger which has so many little improvements over Panther such as Dashboard - I have my calculator, google mail checker, webcam viewer and other little bits and bobs which all pop up ... ...OSX Leopard due soon, it's never a better time to get on the Mac bandwagon - there's no stopping it.
Go and get one you won't regret it!
If there is no Apple Store near you, nip down to PC World and test drive one of the machines instore. ...

Advantages: Very fast / Reliable / Safe / Simple / Looks great Disadvantages: Somewhat expensive
...also consider buying their extended apple support package, as you can relax for three years.
A word of advice, if you are used to a PC mouse, perhaps you should stick to a two button mouse. Apple mice look good, true, but that right hand button is really useful, in my opinion! Any good brand of mice will sell wireless ones which you can plug to a USB port and be fully compatible with macs. At least don't splurge on one of those apple supermice until ... ...The screen is brilliant, has excellent definition and, as I said, is vast. For the first time in my life I'm only using part of the screen to work in a word processor.
It comes with speakers, webcam and microphone built in. No wires and compatibility problems again.
The processor is super fast and the graphics card has been able to handle anything I've thrown at it so far. I work with genealogy programs and sometimes need to work with databases ...

...if you really wanted to.
Apple offer 'Applecare Protection' which is highly recommended. Your iMac will come with 12 months cover but the extension to three years is worth it. The Apple Store run free training for all of the Software that come on the iMac, but the limited numbers of stores in the UK can make this difficult for new users to Apple computers. ...

Advantages: Simply stunning both in looks and ingenuity Disadvantages: Ability to upgrade parts - can only really change memory RAM
...months ago via the online Apple site and it has never faltered. This bit of kit comes in a tidy all in one screen! No more a massive desktop clump of heavy machinery lying on the floor to keep your feet warm over those winter months. I use my Imac for design/media purposes mostly but have just discovered that I can now connect my Xbox 360 up to my imac so i can stream movies music and pictures to it via the program connect360! fantastic! this also ... ...the imac screen via magnets! Apple thing of everything! Another advantage of this mac is that it is one of the quietest machines I have ever used, comparing this to PC\'s you can quite comfortably leave it on overnight if you so require. One thing I find very ingenious is the mini DVi port which allows you to connect another monitor to it so to extend your screen, for example, watch movies on a second screen while working on the other screen, ideal ...
