[QUOTE="the8thark, post: 1030821, member: 26315"] 1. Is it a good machine? I plan just to make videos, make art, music and general school stuff. Yes plus it can do so much more. They really can to everything a home or pro user would do and really efficiently too. Just make sure if you want to hardcore game, check out for discrete graphics. 2. Can I upgrade it? Like hardware wise (Hard Drive, ram, etc) HD yes with a little effort and soemone who knows how to crack into the imac. RAM, yes very easily, you can do that yourself. Anything else nope. But you do not need to honestly. For what you want to do, your imac will last you for 5+ years still using the lastest OS and apps. 3. For people who own it, what is your opinion on it? My imac is an earlier model than yours and I love it. And your one is cool too. I think imacs are the best value for money computer someone can buy. (Now maybe = with ipads in my opinion). But I'm only get one with a discrete graphics card. I just like them. But if you don't intend to play cutting edge games then it's ok you do not need it. 4. Is the Apple Protection plan worth it? For imacs, it's a hard call. 95% of imac owners have no issue with their imacs. I only had a hard drive issue eith mine which I got replaced 4 years after I bought my imac. So for piece of mind you can get it. But you do not have to. I did not. it's a really timy chance there will be an issue with your imac. But it just depends on if you think it's worth the money. For imacs I think not. But for MB's and MBP's I think it is. But each person is different [/QUOTE]
