The Reasons

Reasons We Love Our New iMac

(not listed in order of importance)

There are no wires. No wires. No wire from the keyboard to the screen.  No wires. No wire from the mouse to the computer.  No wires.

Do you know what I think?  I think wires are ugly.  And I think no wires is pretty.

There is no tower. No tower.   No dust-collecting, unattractive, buzzing tower.

It can sit in our living room. Because there are no wires and there is no tower, the iMac can sit in our living room on a small table.  This means our family computer is no longer in a slightly hidden location.  Which means that everyone can always see what the iMac user is viewing onscreen.  That’s some real safety.  And I like that.  I no longer have to be the police.  High visibility is its own conscience.

There are no pop-ups. Who doesn’t appreciate that?

It is ridiculously user-friendly. Guess who really is not a techno-guru?  Me.  And I can navigate this little machine like nobody’s business.  It’s simple.  It makes sense.  That’s amazing.

The mouse has some crazy-fun features. Like side-swiping to the left to return to your previous page.

Its programs are cooler than any I have ever used. iPhoto?  I’m speechless.  I’ll never make another scrapbook in my life.  I can do it all from my own photos.  Right here.  Forget Creative Memories and uploading photos and all that  time spent waiting.  I can even order prints.  In like two seconds.  Maybe I’ll finally send out Fox’s birth announcements.  (Yeah, I know he’s eight months old already.)

There are actually still more reasons.  But I sound like I am gushing.  So I’ll stop.

The only real question is – why don’t you own one?
