iMac!

I got an iMac yesterday, from the Apple Store in Birmingham. :D

It’s the 2.8Ghz 24 inch model, and it’s awesome. The screen is uber clear, and OS X is superb - I can’t believe I lived without it for so long since I had a Mac mini. :(

Anyway, I put some unboxing pics on my photostream so have a look here. :)

I’m still getting used to some of OS X’s quirks again, but so far I’m almost spot on, except for mainly copy and paste (CMD+C instead of Ctrl+C).

    Welcome back to the cult of mac :-).

    btw, you spelt Quirks wrong… just so you know.

    I’m right behind you. Hopefully I will have one soon enough. Were you happy with your Mini?

    Pretty happy with it, yeah. I was actually considering getting it as a replacement for my PC, instead of the iMac, but I still want to play games sometimes, so I wanted the better graphics chip. :)

    Okay, real nice William!

    I might get myself a MacBook in the summer, isn’t that just great. :P

    I noticed that you got yourself .mac, and you have to pay for that, right? Is it really worth to have .mac?

    .Mac at the moment is pretty crap, but I got it for when it changes to MobileMe. ;)

    Haha, well, I’ve been thinking of picking up a bargin Macbook off eBay to replace my Sony Vaio.

    Except they’re not really bargins. They’re all so much. :(

    Anyway, go for it and get a Macbook Pro. Spend some money!
