Details here - http://www.apple.com/uk/imac/
Been thinking about getting a 17" one if i can afford it  (no chance then)
They RRP for £1500 but you can get them on ebay brand new for £900 and thats with a better spec than on the ones in the shop.....
Prob saving £700-£800 in the end 
Opinions/Thoughts on them???

Willay - Macs are better than a PC mate 
PC good if you wanna play games.
Macs better for the internet and running applications

AndyW - so many things are different....
One good thing about Macs is that the computer and the operating system is made by the same company (apple) also alot of the software on there is made by them aswell...
You can have office xp and also photoshop etc.... on them
Check out the site in the link on the first topic....
Im not well up on macs so hard to explain

I use macs in uni and IMO I think theyre just not user-friendly at all if you're trying to do multi-tasks at the same time.
The graphics are amazing and absolutely spot on, but as far as going from application to application, minimizing apps etc theyre crap.

Macs are for yuppies that need something to look pretty, but don't give a shit about the performance of the system... I know people use them for music editing and they are good for that, as with video editing.... But how many home Mac users actually do that?
