I just went to pick up my 24" iMac with Wireless mighty mouse & keyboard, first one sold in Orlando, FL.

The screen is huge compared to my MBP 15"! I will get 2GB of RAM tomorrow.

When you have a spare moment, would you mind measuring from the metal base to the top of the screen. I have a limited space to fit a computer, and would love to be able to shoehorn in a 24" iMac.

It has probably topple over and crushed him. As we sit here waiting, everything is going dim and his life is flashing before his eyes.

Screen is awsome I have to say!

Dear Lord! That is comically huge in comparison to your hand and iPod.

I also like how the Superdrive slot is not at the top of the side, but in the middle because otherwise people could not reach it when sitting down.
