    iMac21.5 replaced my original iMac20 purchased in July 2009. SSD makes this new iMac FAST starting. Built in software. No need to add any Microsoft Office unless you need complex computations. Numbers & Pages translates both to & from Word & Excell if you are sharing with a Windows user. Plus free updates of software

    I have to give if 5 Stars based on what everyone says...but it really is too much for me. It was selected /ordered with my "MacMan" next to me as a replacement for my older computer....but I am 83 years old and inept re computers and most things mechanical [I was a University prof. with excellent secretaries/admin assistants] My family is upset that I purchased an expensive computer. My cell 'phone is a flip-phone...love it...which should tell you something. I shall keep trying and hopefully make some progress.

    Excellent product...does what we need and more. REVIEW CORPORATE POLICY; as an attorney, you covered yourself legally...but consider it SLIPPERY AND CORPORATE SLEEZE to have the Best Buy Card interest rates and deferred interest penalty if not paid within the 24 months. WHY NOT have your minimum monthly payment the amt needed to pay-off the debt within the 24 months (or whatever time period) and allow the not aware buyer to avoid the deferred interest rates (very high btw). Shame on you as you declare your legal innocence.

    I was reluctant to spend this amount of money on a computer but so glad I did! The colors are spot on, lightweight, easy set up.

    I was completely satisfied. My associate, Will Cochrane gave me his undivided attention the whole time I was with him. He was knowledgeable about everything I had questions about. I ended up purchasing the Apple iMac, an external hard drive, membership to Geek Squad and a two year subscription to the security package. I intend to upgrade my printer in the near future and I will be looking for Will to assist. I guess you can say I was very happy with my experience at Best Buy.

    My wife wanted one, bought it for her office, she loves it. Very fast, the only downside is the storage, needs to be bigger.

    I absolutely love my IMac, it’s a phenomenal computer. I’m a Apple fanboy and I purchased a MacBook Pro the same day, I’m going to start working from home and both my Macs are wonderful. I used to be a Microsoft(Windows) person and I finally made the jump a while back and I’ll never use another computer again. I will say that all my local Best Buy’s were sold out and my Apple Store was sold out and finally the manager at my Best Buy found me one.

    I used to be an Apple user at school 10-15 years ago and then they switched to PCs. Decided recently to go back to an iMac and so far we are very glad we did. Had a little trouble with Safari being compatible with our bank and online banking, but downloading Google Chrome solved that problem. Synced with my iPhone has my photos available at the click of an icon which is very convenient. So far-so good.
