does the imac really worth it ?

I have had 3 macs. 1 G5 a MacBook Pro late 2008 and a soon to be Imac 2006 first intel based. Just to say it Macs do last about 90% longer than windows. In my personal opinion Windows is amazing and sh*tty at the same time because windows gets VIRUSES where Macs Donot and Windows also has 1 million updates that constantly get done every 5 seconds and also because they are kinda slow as macs usually always ensure long lasting power and are tough when they are dropped... Only happened once by (accident-Fell out of my car). But when it comes to windows most of the Laptop PC's these days are made out of plastic so if dropped u have to get a new one. But heres where people (Especially teens) vere off, the one time i will ever downrate a mac is for 2 reasons. 1.

The 2006 imac i just ordered in the yr. 2013) 8/26/13 or something like that has the Famous Vertical line problem. 2. Apple charges amazing loads of money to fix problems without apple care which is like a grand. then last but not least 3. Terrible for gaming. Otherwise if u want an amazing speed computer for everything but hardcore gaming (Which most of us never do anymore!) Apple is the computer for u! Honestly I hated Macs for the longest time because i didnt like the User interface or the U/i but then i got a macbook pro for free and that made me want to give apple a second try and i've been in LOVE with apple ever since then which is about a year ago so yeah, If you dont play video games, Imacs and Macbooks are the Best computer on the planet. But however i believe in the next 3/4 years macs will be game compatible for those gamers out there. it kinda already is though but then again no GTA,No B02 and other shooters but i dont game very much anymore so yeah, i love everything about apple!

A few short statements on Shootist007:

1. Shootist007 is being too negative on iMacs.
2. Shootist007 probably never used an iMac or doesn't have the money to buy an iMac.
3. Shootist007 should first buy a new iMac and then post anything on this question.

A few short statements about iMacs:

1. iMacs are pretty expensive.
2. iMacs are simplistic.
3. iMacs are beautiful and powerful.
4. iMacs become cheap in the long run.
5. iMacs usually work smoothly for about 5 years.
6. iMacs are worth every single dollar.

My 2007 iMac 17" worked smoothly until 2011 and I could still use it but I bought an iMac 27" in mid 2011.

I am completely happy with all my Apple products.
