I am buying this for myself for Christmas : www.imac.com
Holy shit, I went in to Comp USA to buy some CDs and I saw an ipod. I went over to look at the accessories for it, and there -- in the distance -- I saw the most beautiful piece of white plastic I've ever seen in my life -
iMac. I played on it for about an hour, taking funny snapshots of myself, oooing and ahhing at the insanely great UI. Everything is so smooth on the mac. The hardware even smells good! When I stood 2 feet away from it, I couldn't even tell it was on. This machine is so quiet! Where is the huge tower? In the GORGEOUS display! Dear lord, this is a sweet machine.
I am converted. Apple was so smart to release the iPod because I never would have switched if I didn't see the beauty of the ipod. Even the packaging is awesome.
Then I went home and cried because I had to use Windows' clunky interface.
