The biggest decision factor between buying an iMac and a MacBook is mobility. Do you need a computer when you’re out and about? Or can you have your computer stay put in on place? Even if you’re not going to use a MacBook when you’re on the move, because a MacBook can easily replace a desktop computer, having the ability to move it around the house is still an important factor to consider.

The second factor to consider is price. The MacBook is Apple’s cheapest laptop costing $999. The iMac starts at 200 hundred more at $1,199 and that’s the starting 21.5 inch iMac. With iMac’s you have two screen sizes to choose from: 21.5 inches and 27 inches. And from those two screen sizes you have two configurations to choose from. In other words: You have four iMac models to choose from starting with a 21.5 inch at $1,199 and ending with a 27 inch at $1,999. Of course the price increases because some components like hard drive capacity, processor, and the video card increases.
