I've decided to get an iMac, but I can't figure out which upgrades are worth paying for, and which I'll be wasting my money on.
This will be my first iMac, but I spend a lot of time on the computer. For the most part, browsing, email, watching Netflix, downloading. No gaming. Once in awhile I use word, sometimes, Publisher. Right now I have an HP Pavillion laptop that's probably 4ish years old, and ridiculously slow. I need something with decent memory as I have a pretty large movie/music/photo collection. My movies can stay on a external hard drive but I'd prefer to have enough room for my music and photos on the built in hard drive. I want something fast where it's not going to take me 5 minutes to transfer a movie file.
I don't really have a set budget, but I don't want to go all out and get every single option either. I'm leaning towards the 27", but other than that I don't know what upgrades will make a noticeable difference and be worth the $$.
Opinions?
