People make these remarks, so I am going to answer them:
iMac's are all about looks anyway.
No they are not, they just helped the machine to be the fastest sold computer in the world.
Where is the floppy drive?
Mac decided that nobody uses the floppy drive anymore, no longer does software come on disks. and why the hell would you need a floppy drive when you can re-write CD's, which is now standard when you buy an iMac modified beyond belief? thats crap, no Mac needs to be modified at all to play PC games, infact all major PC games are now being released for the MacOS, and if you are so desperate to have any game then the Mac can run yes I said RUN windows as an application. WHAT WOULD THAT DO? well you can play ANY PC game or do anything a PC can do inside of the MacOS.
Microsoft and Linux have given MACOSX bad reports.
Have Sony ever wished they had the Pokemon franchise on there side? Why would Linux and Microsoft give it bad reports, could it be that mac is now outselling any microsoft in the terms of sales by 4:1, of could it be that they are jealous? Jealous? yeah jealous because Mac own Macromedia. that is Fireworks, Flash, Director, Shockwave, etc etc..... Linux report on MacOSX was the biggest load of crap I have ever read, it made me laugh, he said that it 'creates in own faults', my dad has just upgraded his blue dalmation iMac to OSX and it is the best OS I have ever used. You also said that WIndows and Linux OS's are getting better, I agree but only the case of Linux, Microsoft seem to be on the rollar coaster, after the year of 98 they had reached the top of the coaster and are now still falling back down, infact BillGates has got his umbrella out and it trying to slow the process down.
What is so good about iMacs anyway?
well then lets see without going into any detail, the come now with a CDRw, imovie2, iTunes etc.. as standard, they take a few minutes to get set up, voice reg.. to turn them on. infa-red optical fibre lenses, and in only 1 months time they will come with GeForce3 as standard, Mac is getting stuff before Microsoft, and one problem I have never had with any of the Macs I use are that it can open any kind of file without a problem, it never has illegal shutdowns.
Who do Mac have on there side?
EVERYONE in the computer industry, Epson, HP, Canon, Adobe (the big one), Norton.. etc..
Does anyone else want to make any remarks?

be nice if you at least tried to answer it though, that would save me typing this...
there was a small problem with that question 'PC'.
So are you saying that because I have a 100base T ethernet connection in my PC I can just buy an ISDN line for £50 and have nothing left to pay?
WHERE FROM????????
WHERE FROM????????
No because you can use it on any existing account that allows the use of 128k modems, which is now most of them.
Also there is nothing wrong with the 56k inside the Mac.

'Buy' an ISDN line for a Mac? Don't you mean buy it then rent it?
Buy an external ISDN line for any Mac for £50 what is your problem then Grix?
That's a good reason. Would my modem blow up if it's in a Mac?
No. It would be internal... and I hate the things. External all the way.
(External all the way? I'm sure FM will come up with some witty line to go with this.)
By the way er-no, could you answer the question in the topic I made please? I'm bored.

The modem is great in any MAC!
( I think he was talking about PC's)

Grix it does have flaws, the fact that it has no flaws, you could get one and have the mission of trying to find one.
You missed out your modem going on holiday without notice.
