Congratulations! I hope it doesn't take too long to ship.
I'm still waiting a few more weeks to order my first mac (20" iMac G5) so I'm envious

Yeah I just ordered a 14'' iBook for my fiance today, and neither of us has ever had a Mac before. Hopefully I'll get one of those 20'' iMac's in the not-too-distance future, or maybe the Powerbook. I'LL TAKE ANYTHING!
Awesome! three converts all in one thread.
Enjoy the pretty, blueish, curved, STABLE side of the OS world..
and if y'all have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
congrats on all the Macs.

Congratulations!! I am green with envy!! I'd be jumping up and down like a little girl if I had one of those bad boys on the way. Oh, who am I kidding! I'm jumping up and down anyway!!

Hey everyone!
Just made the big first purchase:
Got the discounted 2.0ghz imac G5 w/ 512ram + 160gb HD w/ DL burner for $1049 (edu discount)...didn't need the isight or front row, so I think its a great deal.
Finally Switched!!!
Looking forward to setting it all up tomorrow!

Congrats to all of you. Welcome to Mac- you are all going to love it!
I myself am considering purchasing either a 12" iBook G4 or a 15" PowerBook G4 to complement my Power Mac G5. Decisions, decisions...
