[QUOTE="tacsniper, post: 500614, member: 36451"] I see you work for as a Uni staff... if you buy from the apple store or apple.ca you should be able to save $50-100 off (20"/24" iMac) from post secondary institution discount. I am a collage student in AB and I just bought a macbook about a month ago and let me tell you, you will never want to use a PC again! (well for work wise anyway... I still need my PC for gaming). The 20" iMac is amazing... but if money isn't an issue, I would suggest the 24" iMac. The 24" is just incrediable! My coworker just got his and he said he can have word and excel full size right beside each other and 1/2 size of Safari open, then another 4 msn chat windows on the bottom half of the screen!! If you are a teacher and uses slides in your lectures... the Keynotes in iWork is just amazing. With the remote you get, it makes you look much more professional when you do your lectures. Off course, then you will need a macbook for it. As far as RAM, you can check your local computer stores and see if they carry any mac RAMs. I bought 2x 1GB ram for my macbook for $60 each in a local computer store (not FutureShop or Best Buy).
