[QUOTE="bryphotoguy, post: 540027, member: 26695"] I would choose the mini over the iMac if you have the LCD, keyboard and mouse already. The iMac may be an all-in-one system but I assume you're buying it from a 3rd party. If something would to ever go wrong with it in the next year, it will come out of your pocket. If you buy the mini new it comes with a 1 year warranty, upgradable to 3 if you buy the AppleCare before the first year is over. The iMac might have the dedicated video card but the Mini will preform a lot faster. I looked at some Geekbench scores and the Mini almost doubles the performance of the 2.1GHz G5 iMac. [/QUOTE]
