Thanks. FWIW, I think the 24" refurb model you've got is excellent, so I hope your hedging of bets works out for you & that Apple pop in a better video card (on top of the usual bumps) for you guys.

Looks like my hedge bet paid off...with a $300 credit I end up with 2.8 for $1599. Sahweeet! Now I'm off to 3M for the film...
 
Maybe Apple can hold on to the Mini until Montevina debut.

And then we might see new MB, MBP and Mac Mini

Well those three platforms would benefit the most from Montevina.

The MacBook and Mac Mini could certainly use the x4500 GPU. All three models would benefit from cooler CPUs and the MB and MBP would both benefit from lower power draw.

And then, down the road, the iMac can be transitioned to Montevina when the current "Santa Rosa Special" systemboards run low.
