[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1004406"] Hard to say, my friend. When it comes to the video editing and the graphics, you'll never find a better computer for them than the iMac, particularly these new ones. They are stunning, and OS X is the natural environment for all things creative. You'll also be able to run the games you want to, but probably via Windows. The iMac can of course run Windows thanks to Boot Camp, and in many ways this is ideal; the PC side for games, the Mac side for more serious efforts. You can certainly get away cheaper by going with a PC in the short run, but in the long haul I think you'll actually spend less and get more with an iMac. I mean, take a look at that huge LED backlit IPS screen! There's nothing like that in PC land without spending the big bucks. Not to mention the operating system. Call me biased, but if you can swing that iMac, I think that's the way to go unless you're just fooling around. [/QUOTE]
