    For many years I was a PC user. 6 years ago, I was introduced to Apple as a full time platform (computer, phone and then tablet). When my last PC died recently and it was a slow agonizing death, I bought this iMac. It is one of my best decisons ever. No more PC's for me!

    My wife and I were finally fed up with Windows computers. As iphone users, we finally decided to go all Apple. This has proven to be a great family PC for our teenager to do homework, etc. Everything we expected.

    I like that Apple made a computer that fits almost anywhere and performs much better than Microsoft. I love how there are no cords or boxes, just a screen, mouse, and keyboard!

    Made the switch from PC to Mac with this iMac. So far seems good. Had to update to Yosemite myself because machine hadn't been updated. I really wanted the trackpad instead of the mouse but bestbuy only Carrys "mouse as stock" packages. Even though Apple offer either option.

    Love the desktop replacement choice-we went from an old PC to thisMac and have become solid Apple fans. Fast processing, great graphics, easy ... Nothing bad to say at all.

    I am a PC person, but use Apple for creating videos. I like the new features (blue screen) and pre-set video templates. I had problems getting my iPod music carried over to the new computer. Had to settle for copying everything from my old Mac onto a flash drive, and then transferring that to my iMac. (You can't transfer what's on your iPod onto the iMac.) It still isn't working correctly. Looks like I am going to have to manually transfer my 3,000+ songs to the new computer. Customer service was not helpful.

    Apple stopped upgrading software on my previous Mac so I got this new one. No question I would buy anything other than a Mac. The only thing I did not like was that there is no disc drive on this computer due to thinness of screen. I had to buy an external one.

    Although this computer is different from your average windows desktop, I love it. I was very nervous to get an apple computer because I had never used one before. This computer turned out to be a great price for the memory, very user friendly and perfect for my personal use as well as school use. The only complaint I have is that it does not come with a user manual or guide for how to use the computer in general. But overall I love this computer and would recommend to anyone.

    The Mac was more expensive that other computers on the market. But its fun and easy to lean. Lots of easy to learn software that is fun to use and free, like Photo booth and iPhoto. I really like iMovie. The drag and drop feature is great when making movies. The drag and drop feature is great throughout the entire computer. Finder is amazingly logical. All of your programs/movies/music/pictures/documents in the same location. Has a more sound OS from the research I've done. I can't want to learn about more programs and features of this computer. I don't know why I waited so log to get a Mac.
