Bill Thanks for focusing the thread....
to the original poster: If you're going to go OSX I would wary away from the iMac. The all-in-one desktop solution in small form factor has its downfalls, particularly when the mechanical disk (undoubtedly) fails. I have an iMac from 2007 and the hard drive needs to be replaced. The rest of the computer is fine and will probably work for the next 3-5 years for light desktop work (at least for the wife and kiddos). However, I expect the disassembly just to replace this component to be a nightmare.
