I'm on a tower now, but have owned an iMac in the past. The one thing I do not like about an iMac is that both monitor and CPU are housed in the same box which is both a blessing and a pain. If one goes out you have to take the whole mess into a repair shop. However it does take up less footprint on your desk.

I personally would take a Mac Mini over an iMac unless you are going to be doing more than e-mail, posting, surfing, routine word processing and spread sheets in which case you should be looking at a tower anyway.

Otherwise you'll pry my Mac from my cold dead fingers. It is more stable and problem free than any Windows box.

Thanks - that's what I wanted to know.

An iMac will soon enough be here.

I'll just have to figger out how to get the MS Ergonomic Keyboard to work.

That apple keyboard and mouse look totally cheesy.

Unless you want to do iPhone development, I wouldn't buy a Mac. Linux is free, no need to buy another computer, and it is the most secure OS out there period. Mac's are good computers but they ARE overpriced way too much. I am getting a mini-Mac only to do iPhone development, otherwise I would never buy such a closed system that is overpriced. Yeah I know, the iPhone is a closed system too, but I can't ignore the fact it is the best selling smart mobile phone in the world.
