I am currently considering Buying the 27 inch 2.7GHz Apple iMac. I am starting University in september and some money has been freed up to buy one of these. I will be getting Apple's Student discount (15% i think) and i think they look absoulutely stunning. I bought the 32gb WiFi iPad 2 on release date and i havent had any problem with it so far, therefore i am pleased with their stuff. Could anyone on here tell me if the iMac is worth the money? I already have a 1TB external hard drive sitting unused for when i do buy a new machine. Will that prevent it from slowing down? I will be using it for web surfing, word processing, spreadsheets and all the other university work that you would come across and maybe football manager 12 when it comes out.
