Camination's spray job is pretty impressive but I'm not sure I'd want to void my warranty like that. |
Yea, I like the 24", but it is a beast, the 20" is enough for me... for now

Threads like these really make me want to attack the mess of cables under my desk, and try to get everything clean and organized.

It's not for nothing I've just bought more wireless kit - print server, ip webcam, VOIP router etc.... but honestly I can't find the time to get into it seriously.

to MacWaffler...your iMac setup is great. i am planning to buy one when it comes with Leopard and discard my first idea to buy the Mini altogether. how much you pay more for wireless keyboard and mouse. what kind of work you do with this Mac and how long you plan to use it? how long a computer last in a present day fast moving computer's technology and competition? and can an apple computer really be free from virus or hakers when it has opened itself to other Os and mass market ecomomy?
you all know a computer better than me and many thanks for the answer.

I had the wireless keyboard and mouse from my Mac mini, but I believe they are an $89 upgrade option at the reatil Apple locations. I do a good variety of stuff with it, including remote network administration, documentation, have a large iTunes library, large iPhoto library and am not playing with video editing. I also do some casual gaming (although I started playing WoW again, so much for casual), watch movies on occaission, etc... I pretty much run my whole life off this computer, plan to keep it for approximately 24 months (which is actually long for me, thank you eBay).
Having BootCamp and XP on your Mac does not make OS X more susceptable to virus attacks.
