Can I use a Kensington lock with a wall-mounted 21.5 in. iMac?

I have a wall mounted iMac. A friend suggested I get a Kensington lock for it. I want to know is if it is possible to use a lock since I don't have the original iMac stand.

What are the challenges of using Mac instead of PC,especially as a grad student?

I am in the process of switching from PC to Mac-book. After detailed research I found that it is hard to get rid of Microsoft stuff even if you are using Mac. Such as software, blackboard, office, adobe Acrobat...etc. I went to apple store to see if there are solutions for that they told me you need to buy a parallel ($80)which lets you install windows ($70) to use the software because most of them are not supporting Mac, and you need an office for Mac ($79 for student), and so on. Technically, I must spend lots of money($1,600) to use the hardware of Mac and the software are still Windows based and interface.
I really don't like Microsoft products and love apple products, my experiences with my iPhone and iPad are amazing, please your advice to convince me that switching to Mac is the right move. Thanks!

Can I pick up my new mac in an other state?

As a foreign student, I'll stay with my cousin brother who studies in University of Oregon in the summer holidays. But unlucky, I study in California.
So, can I book a Mac online in Oregon and then pick it up in California? Should I pay the tax in California?

Is there an outdoor powered speaker system compatible with airport? I stream my music throughout my house but need powered speakers for outdoors.

I'm looking for something simple where I could perhaps plug the speakers and the airport express into an outlet in the garage and hang the speakers off the garage exterior. There just doesn't seem to be any product that I've seen that makes this process easy. I'm leaning toward just buying a cheap amplifier, connecting it to the airport express and running speaker wire out to outdoor speakers, but thought I'd see if anyone out there knows of an easier way. Thanks, Tim
