The ibooks and powerbooks is how I started with Mac, and now I'm going to buy a macbook. I've always wondered though...every pic of a mac desktop I've seen....it doesn't show a "tower".....is apple so advanced that everything is built in the display?

The only "tower" Apple makes is the Mac Pro. The Mac Mini is too small for me to consider it a tower, and the iMac is the whole computer. The iMac is the only one built this way though, so I'm not sure what you mean by that "every pic of a mac desktop I've seen....it doesn't show a 'tower'".

Well, yes 🙂 It's called the iMac

Apple does have towers, like the new Mac Pro, but their consumer desktop is an all-in-one. Sleek, stunning, and a pleasure to work with

Apple's top of the range Mac Pro is a tower. Looks very like it's predecessor the Power Mac G5.
