Re: iMac

Not sure what your question is?

However, Mac's are great tools for kids. Visually and usability wise they are more user friendly for kids and the elderly, and of course, a more robust OS. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/confused.gif[/img]

Re: iMac

I love the Mac OS environment.

I think it would be a great choice for your child.

Re: iMac

Kids these days are pretty sharp when it comes to techie things. Just give the kid the operating manual and a Mac for Dummies book to learn, and in about six month you will be amazed.
