Similarly, the desktop computers come in the iMac and pro (tower) versions. Again, I'd go for the iMac - you don't need to shop for a separate monitor, and the processors are plenty powerful to handle what you need to do.

To sum up, I'd go for the most loaded of the non-pro apple - either laptop or desktop.

(Can you get one for me, too?)
Okay, this clarifies the diff between a Mac and MacPro.

Since I'm not paying for it, technically, but with my labor, I will hope for a macbook with loads of ram and a really big hard drive. So could I use my Maxtor external hard drive with it? All my podcasts and stuff are on there.
