It is a machine that is designed to be used "Out of the Box". This means: Open box. Take out Mac. Follow set-up directions. Turn-on Mac. Have fun.
If your are a person that can rip a computer apart and put it back together in 5 minutes and enjoy doing so then Macs are probably not for you. The reason for this is Apple designed the Macintosh line of computers to work like an appliance. This means, plug it in, hit the powerswitch, and it comes on.
Conclusion. Macintosh = cool looking toaster PC = Lego set (these are simply categorizations, not what they actually do.)
