iMac is currently the fast Mac machine available. A good choice if you stretch that Yorkshire wallet to the 27" iMac with 3.2GHz i7 processor and 8GB RAM. (£1699).

:lol: You will need to put off that retirement for another year.

I think Eric was meaning if the video camera was any good he would think about an iMac.
Personally I don't like them, I have one and look after two, but for my own use I prefer the modular approach of the Mac mini and the i7 quad/oct is plenty fast enough for me.  If I were doing serious video then it would have to be a 12 core Mac pro with plenty very fast drives and SSD's for the OS/swap drives.
I am sure a (higher than base model) iMac would be fine for Jan making home movies.
