I just don't think they network great together.

When I read it I thought you meant - why get Apple when you already have Windows? As in, you were stating that Windows laptops are better than Mac desktops.

oh...no. I've never used a windows machine other than helping clients troubleshoot theirs.

My imac is probably the best computer I've had in 10 years.

I honestly love how much space I have available on my desk because of the imac's tiny footprint. This is probably the most attractive feature to me overall, I'm a stickler for form and function.

I will be buying another imac in 2 weeks time, already I'm getting anxious to go pick it up :P

I have a macbook, and haven't ever had a desktop computer (that was my own anyways,I have had 3 laptops). I have to say I also would really love to have an imac. That screen is just so big and beautiful!

i would LOVE to have an iMac. My first choice though is some kind of a MacBook. Then when i buy one and show my mom how awesome they are and that you can still use windows if you need it for work or something, maybe she'll go out and buy an iMac

Get one...I got one for x-mas, and it rocks! Looks like modern art as well.

they network together just fine. the only thing i have had trouble doing is printing from my mac to a printer shared by a PC.

everything else works great... file sharing, streaming, internet sharing, etc.

Same with me, I can print fine with my color printer, but my old laser printer won't print from my mac, and both are shared with the PC. Other than that, the networking is great.

I just ordered my very first Apple computer ever on Saturday: iMac 24", 3.06 GHz, 4GB Ram, 1TB Hard drive, etc, etc. Expected to ship sometime between today and Thursday, arriving sometime between Friday and next Tuesday I believe. I'm quite excited. Already received from Apple the copy of Parallel software ordered with it, and have already purchased a fresh copy of WindowsXP for those few Windows programs I want to run. I can hardly wait as I sit here rubbing my hands together.
