[QUOTE="schweb, post: 351148, member: 59"] Overall I'd have to ask whether a Mac desktop is truly the right system for you. If you're looking at tinkering with hardware and upgrading things like you can do on a PC, I would just buy a PC. For the most part, the only upgrading really every done on a Mac may be more memory and possibly a larger HD (although most people usually just buy an external drive). With that in mind, an iMac would suit your needs just fine. Macs are not the same as a PC where you can just rebuild all the pieces at will from off the rack parts. [/QUOTE]
