Guys a few questions if you can please as I am seriously thinking of a 27 inch IMAC .Having purchased an I pad and I phone this year I am seriously impressed with Apples products and having seen a 27 inch iMac screen I want one .

1. I have a £2000 budget and can spec one up from the apple store as an I7 with 8gb of ram and a1TB hard drive , would u be better ordering an I5 with 4gb or ram and a 250 gb ssd ? What would the performance difference be never having used a Mac before ? Will be mainly used for gaming , general Webb and photo use.


2. Can you add external hard drives to a Mac if I need to expand later ?

3. I have a retail copy of Windows 7 and the only thing that is really stopping me hit the buy button is the gaming experience , will I be able to play BFBC2 , BF2 , TF2, and Starcraft 2 ect whilst using Teamspeak as well ?


Cheers
 
just for gaming, go i5, the i7 would be wasted, spend the money saved on the ssd and more ram,

yes external HD are easy, and ignore the bollony about drives being ' mac compatible ' any external will work
although, with a mac, you might wanna look at the more expensive firewire drives ;) tonnes faster than a normal usb 2 ;)
