What kind of things are you planning to do with your computer?

Basically unless you're a serious gamer, an eMac with OSX is a pretty good choice for most people.

Again, what are your needs/wants?

Id say even a gamer will get good power out of an eMac. WarCraft III only requires a 400Mhz G3 or better. The 700Mhz eMac is more than adaquate, especially with a good videocard. It comes with a good one BTW.

Also, you may want to get a tower. All in one units are nice, but a pain to upgrade. If you can locate one of the dual 500 G4's you will have a kick ass computer for under 1200 dollars that will do anything you want. Yes, even run top tier games at good speed. Also, this unit can be upgraded in the future should you need to.

That is my suggestion.

I would get a tower but they are considerably more expensive an i'm not really a serious mac person. I think I will get the emac.
