newbie (purchase cycle and duo core questions)

[mfriedm]

I am thinking about purchasing the imac - when will the supposed cycle as rumored in 1/06 end ? What is "duo core" and when should I buy ???

I'm not sure what you mean by the cycle and when it'll finish, but Core Duo is an Intel chip that powers some new Macs (and PCs). Buy a Mac when you're happy with the specification, at that price, and when you need it.

as amac4me already pointed out, there are quite a few threads floating around here already about these things.. take a gander.

good luck with your research and your future purchase.. and welcome!
