My iMac has arrived today! (Ordered November 30th, BTO + AppleCare + TB cable).
My first impressions:
The 27" screen - It's just splendid!, no light bleeds, no dead pixel, no reflection, no problem!
I7 - haven't tried it yet. I'll let you know how it works with final cut.
3 TB fusion - It's fast! It boots in a second, photoshop just opens .almost as if it was already open. Spotlight was indexing, so it might be a little more fast than what appeared.
680MX - I booted up Diablo 3 just to have a quick look (I was copying a lot of files and importing my pictures in iPhoto) and it was beautiful!
The speakers - they're frankly pretty decent. The sound is good, not party good, not editing good but to listen to some music while doing something else it's far more than enough! As a a matter of fact I still haven't plugged my speakers...
The noise - as far as I can tell, mine is silent! No high pitching noise, no fan noise, and I haven't heard the hard drive yet even with all the copying!
I can't wait for the indexing to be done and my first time machine backup to be completed to really see what this beauty can do!
For all of you guys still waiting (as I was until today), it's worth the wait! 😀😀😀
