Just saw a refurb iMac in the Apple Store and it was less than the base 2011 - presumably the lack of Thunderbolt is the reason - but I've also got a 15 inch 2010 MacBook Pro without Thunderbolt that I can now plug in to my new (but not really new) iMac. I am quite pleased, quite, quite pleased indeed.
I think this counts as a bargain.
