The imac all the way.
And, I’m not biased because I grew up with windows 3.1, and I liked it a lot. I just bought a MacBook, and I love it to death, because it has all the software I will ever need on it… and so much more like garageband and imovie! Windows on the other hand, you’ll get Microsoft word and excel…. maybe… in a trial version. Your best bet is the imac.
