My New iMac...

[Andy Tarpinian]

I second mail and safari, much better. I use firefox and thunder on  
the pc but don't like them as much on the mac.

Let us know how you get on, I think the iMacs are a good deal and you  
get a pretty powerfull setup. I'm looking to get a 15" or 17" pro  
sometime soon + new monitor.
