Apple computers, especially their flagship iMacs, are often described as "the Porches of computers". That's not necessarily true of every aspect, but certainly a few. It's definitely an expensive way to have an all-in-one, but it certainly has an allure.

Since it's only one piece, I consider it an option for portable (not mobile) production computing for A/V production. Not sure how much benefit the i7 gives you if you aren't running apps that take advantage of multiple cores/threads.

However, that 27" screen a couple inches away from your face doesn't make it that easy to work on sometimes. Had to fine tune the mouse movement so it felt appropriate.

Running 10.6 and Win7 on there, works without a hitch. It'd be nice if Boot Camp integrated into the shutdown UI for a less complicated reboot into the other OS.
