Hello!
The thing is, my friend is very interested in taking pictures with that fine camera of his, and sure enjoys editing them in ye olde PC which by now has a few years on it's neck. However, now he is ready for an upgrade, and he has set his mind on an iMac 27"! He's open for suggestions though, he hasn't the slightest idea of the technical stuff, he just wants it to be fast and furious.
Anyway the iMacs 27" are expensive piece of hardware, and I was thinking that he would get so much more value if he let me build a computer for him for the same amount of money (we're looking at around $2000 here) on a PC. I mean, then he could afford even more, an SSD, better graphics, better... everything, overclockable, upgradeable. Everything except the user friendly Mac OS X, of which I know nothing about.
You tell me people, is the iMac 27" really worth it, are shall I go save a friend?
All the best!
