[QUOTE="mac57, post: 224914, member: 17052"] For the entry price you are interested in a used iMac is likely your best bet. Go with a G4 or a G5 - all of the software will run "native" vs. interpreted like a lot of it has to be on the newest Intel Macs. If you want to try out the Mac experience, you want to do it at "full tilt" or you will come away with the impression that they are slow (which they are most definitely not!). You also get serious COOL factor with an iMac, which is also a part of the Mac experience. Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
