[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1609800, member: 46727"] Welcome to the Mac Forums! Which Windows programs do you intend to run in Parallels? And are you sure there isn't an equivalent program for the Mac? We have had many folks over the years switch from Windows to the Mac platform and after a while usually find a Mac program that will do the same thing as their old Windows program. As for the hardware.... an iMac is a great choice for a desktop machine. The 27" iMac is the one I recommend (I have one) since it is memory upgradeable and comes with a discrete graphics chipset and controller (GPU). You can go to the Apple store on line and look at the machines and prices. Or, if you live near an Apple retail store (not Best Buy) go on in and play with the machines on display and ask questions of the sales persons who work there. [/QUOTE]
