New Mac user with some silly iMac ?s

[jedolley]

My first Mac, an iMac (2011 27") should arrive Friday. I'm pretty excited and just working out in my head how I want to set it up with my desk and things. I have a few questions I am hoping to get clarified...

1. I was wondering if someone could tell me how high is it from the surface of the desk to the bottom iMac bezel?

2. Also, I could not find a answer anywhere, but is the iMac display/screen adjustable? i.e. Up/Down, turn right/left, and tilt Up/Down at all?

Thanks,

JD

I can't speak to (1), since I just have a 21.5" model at the office, but as for (2), they have a hinge for *tilting* up/down. They do not move (i.e., telescope) up and down on the stand. They also do not tilt left/right, but the base has little feet that will glide fairly easily on a smooth desk if you want to turn the whole thing left/right, base and all.

1) ~3.5"

2) Tilt up/down only

iMikeT, are you sure you don't mean 2.5"? That's how high mine is.

I was over guestamating. It looks somewhere around 3" actually.
