Dear All,
I'm a long time lurker and this is my first post.
I am from India, and like everyone else, have been waiting for the new Imac. The new Imacs are only expected in India in say February/March 2013.
The price of the old 21.5 '' base Imac is USD 1151 (for this model: MC309HN/A, specs: 2.5GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5, 4GB RAM, 500GB hard drive, AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 512MB)
The expected price of the new base 21.5'' Imac is USD 1525
I only use my computer for basic needs, sometimes corel draw and Photoshop.
Would the old Imac be sufficient for my needs? Is the increase in price for the new model worth it?
I'm on a PC at the moment, been using this for 6 years with no issue (core 2 due, 4 gb ram, win7)....do you think the old one will be able to last the same time with no upgrades?
Is the screen in the new Imac much better than the old one?
Or I could even purchase an old base 27'' for USD 1630
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
