Didn't that happen in the late 70s, resulting in a push to change "cruise control" to "speed control"? I seem to remember someone doing that on a freeway in Florida - popped on the cruise control and jumped in the back seat.
I'd go with the iMac because of the Unix under the hood. I realise I could do the same with the Dell and a flavor of Linux (and could manage that quite happily), but I find OS X to be the friendliest when it comes to GUI.
I have a master clock system at home comprised of a collection of classroom clocks made by the Standard Electric Time Company from before 1950. These clocks are controlled by an electronic master clock from 1989. I couldn't take the drift of the master clock and now have it synchronized with ntpd. So my old classroom clocks are now synchronized to the second, though they only display to the nearest minute (and make a loud audible clunk when they advance to the next minute).
I obsess over clocks not on the system (alarm clocks, microwave etc) and make a point of making sure that they advance when the clock system does.

It's going to be built on Microsoft Access, right?
