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

Re:

Being Apple, they're probably the most expensive coasters available.

Last week, I managed to launch a freshly brewed vat of tea over my wireless keyboard and feared the worst. I was quick to dry it and it's working fine now – all the keys too. Phew.

Anker 4 way usb 3 dock and lg cd/dvd rw arrived. All working fine and makes things less fiddly reaching around the back.

Re:

You'll find the Anker usb hub very handy with all the devices you need connected – it can be a niggle reaching round the back of the iMac for the ports. I have my iMac at home sat on a 'Lazy Susan' turntable from Ikea to make access to the ports easier...

The trouble with iMac's is if the screen goes wrong then you loose the whole computer for repair. So this time after 3 iMac's since 2000 I bought a Mac mini. A much underrated Mac.

Another vote for the Mini! Coolest PC ever, and then some.

trackpad is superb, no mice for me

So do you connect a mini to anything? Like the 32 inch hd tv I have in the loft?

Had my connected to a 42'' Panasonic tv. Looks great. If I could stop buying bike parts I'd increase the RAM to 16. It's a shame the new machines can't uprate the RAM. Have to buy the machine with the RAM you want.
