    As an Apple repair shop owner who has done this repair, the comment about using a celebrity tech vs a real one had me on the floor! Watching you two do this repair was hilarious. Breaking a 27" iMac screen is the standard initiation to mac repair. Don't worry you only do it once! Use the iFix it wedge tool and I use a piece of packing tape on the bottom edge once I have the screen in place, during testing, before I tape it closed. Also, I recommend using 5mm 3M automotive foam tape to seal it. If you have to reopen it, it's far easier, like the original apple tape the iFix it strips are a rip-off and are a good way to break the screen if you need to reopen it! Learn from others' mistakes whenever possible!

      A Lenovo P520 will get you superior upgradability, superior power down the line (swappable GPU's - what an idea!). superior reliability, lower noise at load (hey, who knew putting a computer further away from your ears could make things quieter?) and better support - the unit has 3/3/3 onsite support for starters and you can extend it to 5.
