[QUOTE="Colin Key, post: 357086, member: 26952"] I bought a 20" iMac about a month ago and, although it has been a struggle, I am gradually becoming more and more attached to it (aesthetically it is beautiful and gone now are all the bits and pieces, wires and cables, and everything else that was needed for my "built" tower system - me desk is now free of clutter). I have retained my Sony Vaio laptop with its 17" X-Black screen which I still believe is not just on a par with, but much better than, my iMac screen. I have max resolution on the iMac screen and calibrated it but it is just not as "crisp" as the Vaio LCD. When the laptop needs replacing (within a year) I am not sure what I will choose. I have looked at MacBook Pros and, quite honestly, thought that the build quality was very poor compared to Sony and Toshiba (felt rather "plasticky" to me) and that the keyboard lacked precision. I must also admit that the keyboard with my iMac is not to my liking - these deep keys are rather old-fashioned and I have not yet got used to the grey lettering on white keys; my typing is no great shakes but I have suddenly become dyslexic.
