Yeah, I'm a gamer, but I'm looking forward to a big screen with a Mac OS running.

I don't want to have an antivirus installed, so I'm looking for a mac.
Don't yell at me, but I'm just trying to help you not make a mistake. The end decision is of course up to you, I'm just suggesting.
With $3500, you could easily get one of the best gaming computers around, and also dual-boot Mac OS for your no anti-virus and stuff, and also Windows for gaming etc if you got compatible hardware.
You could also get a 27" or larger monitor. Hell, you could even get 3, and get a 6990 to power them all with one punch.

I also like how simple Apple's stuff look.
That iMac only has the monitor, keyboard and mouse. Is there any Windows PC that doesn't need that loving huge gabinet? Not a notebook, notebooks suck.

Thus, installing Mac on a non-apple computer is illegal.

Do you even think about what theyre cutting to get everything to fit into a monitor? And have fun upgrading that.

There are reasons monitor-only computers died out in the 90s

What do you think this is:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883220092

Also, yeah, looks and brand name. What a reason to spend double the amount on the same thing.

Probably gonna get some steam games and stuff

Slightly related, this is what the steam DL speeds were like last Christmas.


Wish List  
------------
Modern Warfare 3

Is that any good for running a heavy game like Crysis on max graphical settings?
EDIT: I'm being tempted by that computer you linked me to.

All I ask for Christmas is for Steam to give me my god damn account back and let me play my loving games again.

You have one guess.

If you guess wrong, you are an idiot, if you guess right, well, pie.

After seeing the 1.73GHz, I will go with the iMac again.

My wish list/What i want for Christmas:

Nintendo 3DS
Legend Of Zelda Skyward Sword (It might be my birthday because i maybe getting £50 to pre-order the limited edition, My Birthday is this month on the 15th.)
Star fox 64 3D
Super Mario 3D land
LoZ Oot 3D
Sonic Generations
MP3 player
stuffload of money to buy games on steam (Battlefield 3, Beyond Good & Evil, Trackmania, Etc.)

After seeing the 1.73GHz, I will go with the iMac again.

Even though its stuff, it will play games better than the mac. You're an idiot by the way

Stop insulting me. I am defending my opinion and taste.
You all just say a Mac is overpriced because you can't afford one. Bullstuff.

I don't want anyone's opinion on the computer anymore; this will soon turn into a flame war.

I have 2 good computers, one has a $1k CPU, and two $800 GPUs. The other has a $400 CPU and two $800 GPUs. That's just the basics as well. It's not because I can't afford one.

However, that was just an example that you can get a decent AIO for less than a Mac AIO, with more flexibility. I'll find a more powerful one, if you want me to.
