I'm going to be buy a new desktop by the end of this month. I don't really care if they upgrade or not because I going to be buying refurbished.

What I'm using it for is, Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Flash, Dreamweaver, Html, my online classes, everything really. I have about 2900-3000 to spend, if I get the iMac I can save money, and upgrade the ram to 6gb (I think?) or the MP quad 2.8(maybe if I have the $) and a dell monitor, I would like a 24in or bigger.

Any other monitor other than dell, if I can get a cheaper monitor I would like to get the 8 core
 
or what about a quad 2.8 refurbished, (when ever they have them)

I have a 2.33ghz mbp right now, would having a iMac 3.06 and the mbp be like the same?
 
Honestly, I Think the new HP monitors blow away the dells in comparison. My friend has both 1 for his pc (gaming) and the HP on his mac.
 
If you do decide on the iMac, wait until Apple updates them. Even though they didn't get updated at Macworld 09, I expect that there will at least be a speed bump (or maybe quad cores 😀 ) within the next few months. So just hang on, is what I say.
