I cant make up my mind whether to buy a imac or pc i fancy a mac but there expensive what does everyone else think?
They say the imac last twice as long as pc and run quicker because they dont any antivirus or is this all apple hype?

They keep very quiet about viruses, but apples get em too! I'd like an imac but got a pc - known quantity 4 me
I touched on this before, in one of those annoying Mac vs PC threads:
A system that someone has built themselves with good components or from a high end manufacturer (Not base Dell or Sony etc) will work just as well as 'Mac' hardware and be about 30% cheaper. The average PC however is built using cheap commodity OEM components and ships with a lot of crap those same companies install by default on top of Windows. That's the reason Macs seem to last longer on average.
I quite like these guys. If you want to build one yourself check here.
The other good thing with the mac is everthing is in the monitor so there is only one wire thats no messy wires and u can run both windows and mac if u wanted its just pricey and if u have pc there is more choice on software
That small form factor actually lowers the lifetime of the product and makes it more likely to fail. If that's your thing though search for All-in-One PCs. I mean technically Macs are PCs now that they use Intel architectures. A lot of the components are made in the same factories to the same tolerances and specifications. That's why I get annoyed with the terminology of Mac vs PC
Bought a 20" iMac because it looked the bizz no wires, Had it for four years no problems or crashes went as quick when I bought it, lost £300 on it in that time good value for money you get what you pay for with Apple.
