    17" iMac is ever so slightly different from standard beige boxes for a few dollars more than than the (also excellent) eMac - definitely worth a look

    I guess I'd go with the a flat panel iMac (LCD size doesn't REALLY matter to me). My thinking is like, "This is my first Mac, isn't it sweet looking?" The eMac, though I'm sure it's great, just doesn't have the "wow factor".
