Was in my local shopping center yesterday, and theirs an Apple store there. Having a look round see the IMac and realise that for just under a grand it looks bloody great.

Also its got inbuilt hardware so uses hardly any space, seems to be highly user friendly and generally looks like a definite purchase.

Can even have microsoft word and so no cross computer annoyances.

So whats the catch having one of these over a normal pc?

Thanks for all the responses. I feel fairly sure on the apple front now!

However a situation has arisen where here in oz i can do a novated lease and basically salary sacrifice a laptop.

This turns a $2000 Apple Laptop into a $1300 cost due to GST savings (think no VAT) and save 31.5-41.5% on the tax cost as well.

I think a MacBook Air beckons for under $1300!! (or c.600 quid.)
