"I'm buying an iMac"

I've fianlly got round to saving enough cash to buy myself a nice, shiny iMac. I could afford a G5 but would never use it to it's potential so I thought I go for the middle of the road.

I was wondering if any of you guys have used or do use an iMac or any Mac with OSX on? Is there anything you can't do that you can on a PC? Apart from reboot, that is ...

While we're at it, can anyone recommend a Mac alternative to FrontPage Express?

Cheers in advance.

At last!

I've ordered my iMac and have just received confirmation: "Please allow 3 - 6 days for delivery".

*grits teeth and waits*

iTunes is crap - paying for stuff you've been able to do for free since 1997? Someone explain the point to me? You can't even use the music you download in anything other than iTunes or crap Apple portable hardware!

I know and it rules!!!

Exccept it crashes on my friends pc's .

Audio books, Itunes only radio and music store.

Gift vouchers.

Oh and it can play music.
Visualiser.
Free CD burning.




Any way I wasn't using it as an argument.

You can't use iTunes in this argument anymore...

Welcome to iTunes for Windows.

Only been out for about, ooh, a month!

Eh iTunes is the useless.

Eterm is just a terminal emulator. It's better because it looks nicer.

Back to the Mac thread.

I'd use Mozilla if I had a Mac because it's just a better browser than Safari, no matter whether it uses the OSX UI or not.

Heh, I didn't know that was possible. Just did it in Mozilla and it was very nice: cheers. I'm more of a middle mouse button man myself, but it's nice to have options.

Never used tabs - this'll be the first time I've not used IE!

*blushes*

Roll on Wednesday!

Not very.


Only one problem with Safari that I hope that they fix. I don't know if you have used tabs before but even though they have done alot of stuff for the tabs you can't drag a link into an already open tab. You have to close the tab and opeen another one either with the mouse button and click on the link and select open in new tab or by holding down the command button and clicking on the link.
