I've decided to get an iMac (I'm about halfway with the money). I have a fwe questions:
1.Will .exe files work with a Mac?
2.Do iMacs come bluetooth ready?
3.Does anyone know where I can get the drivers for a Westell 6100 modem?
Thanks!

1) If you reboot into Windows via Boot Camp, or run Parallels to run Windows, yes. Otherwise no, as .exe means "Windows executable."
2) Yes, it's built-in.
3) No clue.

From what I can glean from the web, it has an ethernet port. No drivers necessary.

This is a DSL modem. (So, of course, you will need to establish DSL service with a local provider before you can use this modem.) It can connect to your Macintosh via Ethernet, but not via USB, even though it has both Ethernet and USB connections. It is OS X-compatible without the need for any drivers. You can download the user's manual from here:
http://www.fastacces...stell_Guide.pdf
It includes setup instructions for OS X.
