As the operator of Mac LC575 all in one used every day for 8 years or so I really do not think repair or expansion slots are a concern to me. We have never had to repair anything and it still does its job well. Give me the all in one every time. I also have an Imac as well. I would love to see the next generation machine with an all in one superdisk printer scanner and camera , bluetooth or airport and mobile phone.
