We got so tired of blue screens from our Dell! My husband was so tired of the waiting and not knowing whether or not to allow a download. We almost gave up on having a home computer. Too stressful and expensive replacing every 3-4 years. We love the Mini Mac. Just enough for our e-mailing, surfing, photos and documents. My daughter is sending me her old iPod. Now i can get iTunes and truly be an apple convertor.
