SHOW US YOUR IMACS (formerly iMacs should I bother?)

Re:

That's the Spirit of Steve Jobs at work, that is. Apple control freakery locking everything down, so you can't tinker and do repairs and upgrades yourself.

That's a big old screen you got there!

+1 for the Mac Mini. I love these – it's a shame they stopped shipping with the cd slot.
 
Re:

This affinity photo is a bit more photoshop on steroids than I expected.

Camera does ok:



then tweaked:
 
Re:

Taking into account the Retrobike upload restrictions, those photos look pretty damn good – think I'll give Affinity a try myself.

Well that seems to be ok. Wired full size proper apple keyboard for £20 via fleabay :)

If anybody wants a trackpad it's your for £20 posted. Will be going on ebay shortly.
 
Re:

The wired extended/normal sized keyboards work much better – the wireless ones are too narrow/cramped and they eat batteries.
 
Bit fiddly with the sd card slot so will get a dinky reader as I have a four usb 3 port
 
Re:

Remember fumbling around the side for the sd slot on mine, only to lose the card into cd drive slot just above it :facepalm: managed to retrieve it with tweezers. On the newer iMacs, the sd slot is inconveniently located on the back with the other ports.
 
Today I got an audio interface. I also downloaded garage band and can now record instruments alongside loops or completely multi track my own composition. Very impressive. I've used an electric guitar so far with amp simulations provided by the software.
 
Re:

Also recommend Audacity (free, open source, cross-platform audio software for multi-track recording and editing) and Wire Tap Pro (records system or or audio input and is great for recording all tunes off Youtube and the internet – I've built up a library of obscure rarities recorded off the web and then imported them into iTunes).
