an 828 will work fine on an Imac. In fact you will be very impressed with it's capabilities (828). Where your problems will start will be with the 20 chanels at one time, but that can be solved by instlling as much ram as the iMac will handle. My 350 mHz iMac with 192 megs of ram will run a maximum of 10 stereo tracks (depending on the length of track), I suppose I could run 20 tracks in mono, but have not tryed it.
