Deranged Freak Fest

Dear Future Gamer,

Is the iMac not just some kind of deranged Internet freak fest?? I've heard that it has no hard drive and you have to log on to the Web and do everything from there. That's all very well if you live in America or somewhere where you don't pay for Internet calls, but over here in the UK it could cost a fortune! I could be wrong, if I am don't take it out on me, blame it on Andrew Moodie 'cause it was him that told me.

FG: I'm sure Apple's marketing dept will get glad to hear you're totally confused about the iMac. No, it's not just an Internet tool, it's a 'proper' computer with a hard disk and everything. It has a modem built in for easier Internet access and has a processor fast enough to compete with high-end PCs which makes it ideal for games too. You shouldn't go listening to Andrew Moodie, he's well known for getting it all wrong.

Got an opinion or a question? Write to me at andy.smith@futurenet.co.uk...
