After 10 years with a laptop, I decided to return to a desktop this year. I have an iPad that goes with me all the time, greatly reducing my need for a laptop. I went to the Apple store tonight and came home with this. A new iMac. The box itself is pretty to look at. But what's inside is even better. First out if the box are the keyboard and mouse. Both are Bluetooth, so no cords.  Next came the computer itself. The iMac is all wrapped up like a Christmas present.  The iMac contains everything in one piece, no separate CPU tower.

Thanks for looking, please let me know what you think; positive or constructive....
