[QUOTE="torero, post: 1488339, member: 290761"] [b]Speaking of Ram[/b] Thanks everybody for your thoughts. Speaking of Ram, if I were to buy the 2012 iMac would 8 gb of ram be adequate for the long haul and running Parallels, or would I want to upgrade to 16? No gaming will be done this machine. If the 16, am I better off getting the 2011 iMac with comparable processor knowing I can not only upgrade the Ram, but do so much more cheaply than through Apple? Is the difference in screen glare/reflection really that big of a deal? [/QUOTE]
