Great sound and picture quality, the look is streamlined and so nice to be rid of that tower. I wish it came with a manual though because an iMac is very different and I had to find someone to help me do the simplest things, like print. There is quite a learning curve but within a werk I was pretty comfortable with it.

Was looking to upgrade my computer because mine was older than most. I am not Apple person so the learning curve has been steep, for me at least. My wife loves the Iphoto things she can do with and I wont need another computer for quite sometime as these last a long time. I would not recommend you upgrade to the 1TB memory as it is not really needed for most home user's , if more memory is needed youcan certainly buy a external drive with more memory han you will ever fill up. This thing does not have a CD/DVD drive either so if you have external media you need to run, you will need to purchase one you can buy one from Apple for about $70 or look to Amazon and find one for about half the cost. Not sure why Apple took them out of these machines, as the space is there without losing any memory/processor functions.

I am used to a PC, so this was my first Mac, although I have an Ipad. Everything wireless is nice, graphics are great, and the sound is surprisingly good. My only complaint is that there is no disc drive, so there is no way to input a CD into my music library without using a disc driver elsewhere and converting to a flash drive. I'm sure a CD extension is available, but I would have expected a CD slot to be built into the computer. Otherwise very nice.

It's been a while since I've owned an Apple computer, but I thought I'd get one this time around. I'm glad I did. It is just a beautiful machine, and it works flawlessly as expected. My regular Windows laptop is now gathering dust.

I'm big Apple fan. Bought this computer to replace an older version of Mac. I'm satisfied with quality and design of the product. Great picture, speed, apps.
There is no DVD drive and keyboard doesn't have number pad. I wasn't aware of this prior to purchase. Minor inconveniences...

As a non-tech type person, I found the set up of the MAC to be extraordinarily easy. It is very user friendly and guides you step by step. Since I am a little OCD, I have to say I LOVE the lack of wires. Wireless keyboard and mouse have a very minimalistic/modern look.
The only issue I had initially was some difficulty with transferring files from my previous hard drive. That wasn't the computer's issue, just my lack of expertise in the area. Watched a youtube video or two.....and problems solved.
The syncing w/my iPhone 4s......easy. Much of which is done automatically through your apple ID.
Initially, I was concerned about the price differential to some windows products, however I couldn't be happier to have made the decision I did. In my case, the Mac was $150 more than the Lenovo I was looking at....and I believe the extra cash was worth it.....and will be worth it long term.

A great computer with excellent graphics. I like how it syncs with my phone and ipad. I was reluctant to purchase an Apple because of the expense and I was so use to Windows. However my computer of many years crashed and it was time for an upgrade. I was glad my brother finally convinced me to make the conversion. There's windows, excel etc for MAC which I use. It's also all in one so no need for separate monitor and hard drive. The downside is you do have to buy a separate cd drive if you want to use CDs or save on CDs. It's also a lot to learn so I do recommend taking a MAC class if you are new to Apple. Overall I'm impressed with my purchase and it was pretty easy to purchase at Bestbuy.

I would reccommend this to anyone. It was fast and easy to set up. My only surprise was that you need to buy an external drive to download a CD or watch a DVD. The folks at Best Buy were superb in handling my sale.

This is a great computer that will satisfy 90% of the needs of home computing! Unless you need to do some advanced video or music work, this computer will be all you need for years to come. It was especially attractive at the price point when Best Buy offered a rare $120 off sale. This coupled with an education price reduction and the deal was a no brainer. I highly recommend this computer and suggest keeping an eye out for specials that make it even more attractive.
