it must be nice to be able to buy a new machine and immediately void the warranty without a thought of it... 🙄

although it is cool looking...not worth the risk to me...

Have any of you actually had a Flatpanel iMac? Man, I like my white MUUUCH better... the black looks just too... out of place... I just don't like it...

Yeah, all it needs is the multi-color logo and it could pass as a throwback from Apple 10 years ago. 😀 I always did like Apple's black protos/computers.
