[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1631944"] How can we possibly answer that? Wouldn't that be up to you and what you are intended to use it for? All I can tell you is this: you cannot even buy a 5K HDTV for less than this entire computer costs. It's like getting the Mac for free. My best suggestion would be to go to a store and take a look at the 5K versus the non-Retina iMac and you be the judge. From strictly a "value of equipment" point of view, yes the 5K is worth the extra $500. From a "will I take advantage of that" point of view, probably not unless you're a pro photographer or video editor. [/QUOTE]
