I've been all set to go hogwild this spring and purchase a 24" C2D iMac with several BTO options; however, I learned today that this Monday only, our university bookstore will be selling 15 unopened base model 20" Core Duo iMacs for $799.

Is this deal too good to refuse? The extra savings would mean a quicker replacement a few years down the road, plus it would kick the crap out of what I have now (and rarely use) — a blue & white G3 400 mhz tower.

So... what would you do?

Go for it. It is a good deal.

Besides in a year, you can probably sell it for close to what you paid for it when you upgrade to a 24 inch model.

BTW, can you pick up one of the 17 or 20 inch models for me? Pretty please!

Yes I would!

Wow! Amazing prices. Run and get that thing! That may be one of the best deals of the year. My 20" BTO Core Duo iMac cost me almost $2000 after taxes....

Heh, it looks like you'll have to pick up 15 for everyone here on MacRumors.....
