    I have the 24 inch version, it's awesome, I can run Windows thru a program called Parallels. So you can do anything you can do on a PC plus everything Mac. I say go for it, you won't be disappointed

    You can play stars, ftp and UB/AP within the mac os.

    Its not really a problem for me cause thats all the sites I play on.

    You'll pick it up quickly, Mac OS is pretty intuitive. You can also use VMWare Fusion, works basically the same as Parallels.

    Yell if you have any problems/questions.
