Congrats!

May you go many years without being forced to buy anything else to retain your current functionality.

But why spoil a joyous moment?

Those new iMacs own. Last year when I was looking for a computer, I almost bought an iMac but I like CRTs more.

Just a tip: When you're in the System Preferences (aka Control Panel) and you're looking for the Mac version of a Windows control panel, there's a search bar in the upper right-hand corner. If you type in the Windows version of that control panel or process, there's a good chance it'll find the Mac version for you. I think Steve Jobs demoed that as a feature of OS X for people thinking about moving to a Mac.

CONGRATULATIONS!



They're very nice. I have two of them. One of them I bought on Craigslist for only $1000 - brand new and used for only 2 days. Buyer's remorse. He bought it for his teenaged daughter and gave it to her for her birthday then she decided she wanted a notebook instead. We got lucky.
