I got my 20" imac about a month ago and am very happy with it. However i have my imac on an unstable computer disk and am worried incase it will damage my imac.

Any time i lean on the table or hit it accidently the imac shakes slightly. It doesn't shake that badly i'm just wondering if even slight movment would do any internal damage that could affect any of the componets and cause them going loose?

Putting it on a computer disk is probably the problem!

But in all seriousness, just get a new desk, if you cant afford one, the wobbling shouldn't be any problem just like you wouldn't worry about a laptop wobbling on your lap. I would be more worried about the imac falling of the desk!
 
Oops really didn't notice that i clearly meant desk ;)

Theres nt much chance of it fallin over jst wasn't sure hw fragile it could b.
 
I get the same problem except it's not my desk that's wobbly...... I think it's my iMac. :confused: I'm going to call Apple see if they have any ideas or if I should send it back for repair.
 
I agree with others. Might as well be proactive and avoid any future disasters and just get a sturdy desk for your new :apple: investment ;)
