Hello all. Just an update - and won't keep adding them here as I know this isn't a blog!
Well, I eventually picked up my shiny new iMac on Friday and my hubby and I set it up when he got home from work. We were both very impressed with the speed and ease of set up, and in particular, how QUIET it is! I'm amazed. My Dell PC sounds ridiculously noisy compared to this. I am using the Mac now to type this, and I must say that I love the keyboard, it's gorgeous. Not sold on the mouse yet (got the wired Mighty Mouse) but I'll give it time.
I've had a good fiddle with apps and settings and everything seems very logical and clear. The task of moving my data across will have to take place after my holiday, as we're off to the Maldives tomorrow for a week. I'm looking forward to doing the data transfer and taking my time, then being able to use iPhoto etc to play around with my pics and files.
In a nutshell, so far, I'm over the moon. It's such a gorgeous, quality piece of kit and the screen is superb. Quick and quiet, what more do you want? Oh, and my hubby was blown away with the remote control that you can use to access all your movies, iTunes etc. He really liked that.
Well, had better go and put the final touches to packing.
Thanks again to everyone who helped me with this dilemma, and in particular, Woody. All I can say is, I am pretty sure I've made the right decision.
Take care all.
Lucy
