[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1383146, member: 56379"] This is usually not a very good comparison...since portability is a VERY big consideration when purchasing. An iMac is a desktop computer (not very portable) & a MBP is a laptop computer (very portable). If you need portability...then you need a laptop. If portability is not important...then get a desktop. If you want to do a comparison...comparing two laptops models or two desktop models would be a more fair comparison. - Nick p.s. FYI...in many ways when it comes to upgradeability...today's iMac's are just BIG heavy laptops with a large display.;) [/QUOTE]
