I will say this: I had an ibook and loved it. But we spilled something on the keyboard and fried it. Oh, I replaced the keyboard against the advice of the techs and got it up and running, but it was never the same. For that reason alone, I got an iMac desktop the next time. Love it. And I can spill away on the keyboard and just replace the keyboard.
The iMac comes in a 20- and 24-inch screen, which is huge, but the hard drive is built in the monitor. I have mine set up on the kitchen table. It's a little bulky when company comes over (rarely), but it's convenient as heck. With a wireless iPort, your printer can be in another room.
I got the 20" with the extra memory for $1,499, but the basic model is $1,199. I love the extra memory for video editing.
Here's the stats on the version I got:
2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
2GB memory
320GB hard drive1
8x double-layer SuperDrive
ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB memory
Ships: Within 24 hours
Free Shipping
$1,499.00
And if all that hasn't sold you, check out the picture. Photo Booth is the coolest software ever. |
Thank you!!! Great info!!! Hey so you got the 2gb memory? Would the 4 be over kill? I just store pictures (LOTS) and music and some video too. I was looking at the one you posted.
What about my other programs like photoshop and stuff like that? Can I load them on there? And internet? Will I see the same stuff I see now? (sorry to sound dumb!!!)
