[QUOTE="Sachsr1, post: 303695, member: 23128"] Rather then spending alot on a machine that can run all those apps and game I would recommend a cheaper solution. Try out a mac mini or a macbook, and keep your PC for the other apps u need to run. Macs aren't known for their gaming abilities, and to get decent graphics you would start looking at $2000 and up for a 20-24" iMac or a Mac Pro. I saw you were an engineer and you need to run professional software so I'll guess CAD? or something similar? That's a windows only app I believe, so you would have to run windows on your mac most of the time. Maybe you wanna start out with mac mini and a switch so you can use your PC keyboard/mouse/ monitor. Also you could get a Macbook, or a used Apple to get to know how it works. You could use it as a e-mail, web, and iLife machine. One thing I've noticed about this forum is people aren't gonna lie to you to get you to buy a Mac. They will come out and tell you that a Mac may not be right for you. If you do choose to get a Mac take a good look at the low ends Mac, and how you may use them. [/QUOTE]
