[QUOTE="giulio, post: 438249, member: 28677"] Hey folks. As part of my annual review/raise, I said I wanted a new iMac. My boss said "how about 4 PCs instead?" jokingly. I've read around here in passing that part-for-part, a similarly equiped PC would cost the same if not more. Can you help me find the nearest comparison with price as this iMac?
