I've noticed that the refurb shop is churning out a good number of i5 27" imacs at the mo, this is the machine that i'm after and will probably end up with, should i grab one now or wait until the next release in the expectation that the price will drop further with the new imac appearing??

Any thoughts, i'm getting impatient with the waiting :/
 
If you're going to buy the "old" one anyway, just do it now. You might save a hundred or two by waiting but IMO it is not worth it.
 
Yeah, the refurb price will probably drop further when they release new ones, but there's no word on when that might happen. It's just a question of whether $100-200 is more important to you than having the machine now.
 
The microcenter near me usually has prices lower then the refurb price. See if there is one near you.
