I previously had a very fast windows pc, with windows vista ultimate installed, and yeah it was good but this imac is just in a world of its own. Ive been very demanding with it and its not crashed, its fast, great picture quality, you'll be supprised with the inbuilt speakers!
The screen quality is absoloutly brilliant, iLife is pretty good fun aswell, you can just take a pic with the inbuilt camera and its on the internet in a professional album within seconds!
If your a little worried about getting a mac, if its new to you or you don't know much about them then this is the mac for you... JUST BRILLIANT.
I am basically very impressed with this system and i can not say how much i back apple up now with their products.
SETTING UP: You may all know that when you buy a pc you have to install all the disks and everything that came in the box, well with the IMac i just took it out of the box, turned it on and went through the initial setup. Then in 15 mins with no disks at all all the software was up to date, no worries at all, no popups nagging you every 15 mins and NO RESTART which was brilliant. Installing the software that i purchased additionally was really quick and easy aswell, i just put the disk in, dragged the file to the hard drive and your done, no hassle like you get with a pc!
The only thing that i can see as a bad point was the hard drive space, the system that i bought has a 250GB HD but the first time i turned it on there was only 201GB free, so OSx must be taking up a lot of storage space then!
The software that came with the imac was great, itunes, safari, garage band, iphoto, hd dvd creater, mail and much more. Everything was already installed and up to date ready to go. No trials!!! Well, i did get a trail of Office but that came in quite usefull!
Anyway, im really happy with the imac and i highly reccomend it to anyone who is looking at getting a mac!

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.
