    After several months of consideration, decided to buy the least expense iMac to replace my aging MacBook Air (mid 2013) as the primary computer of the house. Over all very pleased with the decision. The price point was right on and the specs were acceptable for our general purpose use. I've installed Parallels and Windows 10 to make this the ultimate personal computer setup for all uses. The only issue, which I did not realize until after the purchase was that BestBuy doesn't reward on Apple purchases! Big bummer there.

    This is my first home computer. I work at a law firm so I didn't want to compute at home. However, this pandemic changed the game so I had to purchase one. I needed a simple computer, but was told this was one of the best -- they were not wrong. Everyday I find something new this does that surprises me, like receiving and sending text messages from it directly, or being able to make my television my phone screen. It's pretty amazing!! Can't wait to see what else it's capable of.

    I am so happy to get a new iMac after my previous iMac (bought in 2011) fell victim to a lightning strike on my house last month. I really like the vivid color and detail this screen gives. It really makes a beautiful picture. And the solid reliablility keeps me choosing Mac. It now comes with a rechargeable mouse and keyboard!

    I am a MAC product enthusiast, but I had only used PC's before. I got my first MAC from Best Buy, and it linked up with my iPhone and iPad with ease. Everything is so easy to use and intuitive. I will never buy anything else.
