    I am a windows user, but windows 8 pushed me to look somewhere else, for first experience, I am enjoying it, is good for every thing, even though I have to learn many new things like the keyboard shortcuts.

    The change from my old PC to my new Mac went easily. All the new Apple software worked great. I bought Home & School for Mac and all my 2000 Office Word & Excell files were transfered flawlessly. I had never used a Mac before, but it's software was extremely intuative.

    I am an Apple fan, so my bias for Apple is firmly set. Another great Apple product. My second iMac (my 4th Apple desktop). Last one went 7 years without a hitch (except for increasingly slow performance). I also have a 2013 Macbook air which has been awesome as well.

    Excelent screen size, viruses hardly attack this computer perhaps the IOS is better than Windows at leas regarding this aspect. Magic mouse and keyboard are awesome communication via Bluetooth is great.

    Easy to setup and use. Price was great and found it wise to buy geek squad protection as a month into it we clicked onto a bad Facebook post That left a virus on the machine. Money well spent and quick turn a round by the geek squad on the repair( 1/2 day).

    I am new to iMac as I have been using HP for years but with some time and patience I have overcome my fear. This pc has a great monitor size and the all in one style takes up less space. Also the in store classes that Best Buy provides are very helpful.

    Great iMac at a great price

    Ordered this iMac online when it was on sale for $200.00 off and received it 2 days later. The new iMac came loaded with 10.10.3 (Yosemite) and has been very stable. This was purchased to replace a 2008 model iMac and restoring my users/data from my old iMac using an external drive time machine backup with the migration assistant was a breeze. There have been a few incompatible apps (e.g. yahoo messenger) with the new version of OS X, but have either downloaded updates or found other apps to replace the incompatible ones. We are very impressed and pleased with this iMac so far.

    My last iMac I purchased was in 2007 so I'm glad I finally upgraded to the new model. The speed is better but still a little slower then I expected but it's the base model. It's not our main computer so it will work fine. The smaller keyboard takes time to get used to, and it doesn't have a 10 key so that would have to be a separate purchase if you work often with numbers.

    If you know Apple then you know that you are getting the best. This all-in-one desktop is great and is easy to use. I've been using Macs forever and this one is another great one from Apple.

    Replaced my 2007 iMac with this iMac after a hard drive failure. If this computer is anything like my original iMac I will be very happy. I will be installing a SSD into my old iMac when time permits. So far this new iMac works just fine.

    I was able to get a much better computer than I thought I could afford because of best buys pricing, and open box discount. The iMac is beautiful and works like a dream. It arrived very quickly and was in perfect condition. No complaints!

    This computer has been great! My family and I traded in our two MacBooks to upgrade to an iMac. We have never made a better choice. This computer is strong and fast. Lots of processing power. And a fairly big hdd. We are well pleased.

    iMacs are the workhorse in my small business of 14 employees. They go and go, whereas PCs and even mini-Macs fail to perform at the level of performance we need. iMac forever.

    My very first iMac is proving to be a good choice. Although I'm used to using Windows PC, i find the learning curve to be minimal. I still have a lot to learn, but so far so good.
