These are both iMacs. I need a new one and these seem decent priced...if I need one for web design and graphics...maybe a bit of gaming what is my best bet? Or do these both suck?

I don't really see a difference but the info on them says that the top one is 50% faster with better performance.

(this one is $350 more)

i cant tell though, b/c those specs arent detailed enough

On the new imacs the hardware components are built into the screen. So if that 2 inches is really important to you upgrade.

Is that 2" worth $350? I'macs are suppose to be decent aren't they? I've been hearing some good things about it and some bad about Vista...if I go with a new computer would it be smart to change from Windows?

I've never had to pick out a computer on my own, I'm confused, sorry. lol.

I don't want to get a crappy one that I'm going to be having the same problems with next year. Ya' know what I mean?

I personally wanna try the new version of OS X, hear they ripped a ton more ideas off from linux.
