[QUOTE="jack24, post: 813910, member: 90210"] Hi. I'm new to this forum. I use a dell laptop for grad school and it's been fine for what I need, but I really don't like vista. My wife uses an old laptop, but she wants to buy a desk top for photo/video editing and other miscellaneous stuff. She is very interested in buying a new iMac for $1500. I think Mac's are great and all, but with a 25% off coupon, I can get an incredible dell desktop for that amount of money. On the surface, the dell machine seems to have superior specs. So what makes a mac worth the extra money? If I can get comparable specs with Adobe CS4 and MS office on a PC for the same amount of money should I do it? Or should I still go with an iMac? [/QUOTE]
