... I can finally go and get a 24" iMac!!!!!! During a financial drought, I had to sell my intel white 20" imac and borrow my friend's eMac... So now I didn't know what to do with myself until the stores open, I had to post... wish me luck? lol.
Got a tip for us?

LOL, sorry for the potentially misleading title 🙂 but at least it's not what clyde2801 thought it would be and another "should I... " post 🙂
and a456, I gotta say... it's both! I went to the Apple store in my area yesterday just to take a look at them again,and, yeah, it's definitely both 😀
Thanks for the support!!!

I bought my iMac 24" two days ago at Apple's Fresno store. I also ordered 4GB of Mushkin RAM from Newegg before driving to Fresno. Amazingly, the memory arrived the next afternoon, and I had only chosen UPS guaranteed 3-day shipping.
I decided that even if I waited for the next update, Nehalem would most likely render it "obsolete". My wife and I needed a second Mac more than I needed any foreseeable updates.
The difference between the glossy screen and the matte screen on my Core Duo 17" is striking, a difference made more clear when I had them side by side to transfer files.
Enjoy your new Mac.

I'll tell you what, I just got it and am using it as we speak and i gotta say... wow. It's great. The keyboard takes some getting used to but i am getting there 🙂 Absolutely awesome!! Now, to set it up! 🙂

I got used to the keyboard on a MacBook, so this new Apple keyboard is not a big change for me. I like it better than my old Apple keyboards, as it is quieter, appears easier to clean, and I type faster with the shorter key travel.
The change in function keys is the biggest adjustment for me. Thankfully, I just discovered the "fn" key.
I'm glad you have a wonderful Mac again now that your financial drought is over. Congratulations!
Congrats !!! I hope to be setting mine up pretty soon although I want a blackbook and I don't have enough money now... c'mon tax returns !

Keyboard, YECH!
I had bought a few of the older keyboards as backups when one of the original ones died so now I'm sitting pretty with a new aluminum imac with the older keyboard. Yeah it isn't the new sexy and useless design but I'm happy... And the 'mighty mouse'? ICK...
What was Apple thinking...😱
Isn't it funy how money works sometimes. I had a killer car stereo in college and sold it because I had money issues and in less than a week I got a new job with a huge raise in pay. Life is funny...
