My PC recently broke down, constant BSOD in what I believe is either hard drive failure or mobo failure. Either way I wasnt happy with the build and its time to splurg and get a new PC especially since college is about to be complete and the work world is picking up.
I've used a 15 inch Macbook Pro for the past 6 months exclusively for work (as well as Ubuntu as work desktop OS) and I really do just love it. Not a damn problem with the laptop or using the OS in my daily life except that I do have a deep passion for PC gaming except even that is starting to slow down with only really playing games like LoL, SC2, Black Ops. I have a PS3 so I was hoping I could start getting into console games instead but none the less I feel I can dual boot windows if needed.
I guess I'm just second guessing iMac or building a desktop again. I'd be using BillMeLater because I dont want to spend the money right away even though I have it. The iMac I have my heart set on is the new i5 27 inch with the upgraded graphics but was hoping to get an open box or refurbished unit.
Either way any iMac owners out there who can help with personal experience to make the decision easier?
