Pros
- fully 1080p capable
- can write to the newest optical media (many times the size of DVDs)
- has the connections the other series should (eSATA, HDMI output etc.. .)
- much more powerful than any iMac-like PC released (including the top-of-the-line iMac)
Cons
- will be out-of-date in 6 months like any other computer
- extremely costly
- while decent, the 9600M is not a gamers video card
- very poor 1-year limited warranty
