[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1532619, member: 46727"] The 27" iMac with standard features should be OK for what you need it for. Don't order extra memory from Apple since they charge a premium price. The 27" iMac can easily be upgraded with more memory and it's much less expensive from third party suppliers like Crucial or Other World Computing. Take note that the CPU or Graphics Processor can not be upgraded so if you need more power, decide on that before you buy. Also, replacing the hard drive in an iMac is a difficult task and procedure, so again, order what you need ahead of time. I do not recommend purchasing any model of the 21.5" iMac because the machine is not user upgradeable and I believe overpriced for what you get. [/QUOTE]
