It is a horrible, horrible machines. All of them should be boxed up and sent to me...I'll dispose of them properly ;-P An iMac 17" that just came into our office had the most die-hard peecee freak admitting it was a damned slick system...we almost 'had problems configuring it' to play with it a few more days, but the owner knew better (it's a Mac, after all. ;-) Very nice, fast, and that screen is gorgeous. I could almost, get away with it as my main machine...(I'm addicted to a two-monitor spread, though...I have two 17's at home, amd a 19 and a 17 at work, and I *use* them. If they let you spread your desktop across another monitor I'd get one in a heartbeat.) I'd kick up the RAM asap, though. OSX runs ok in 256 megs, but it's a Unix box...it wants as much memory as you can stuff into it. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
