Any ideas what the refurb price of the 27" i5 or i7 quad cores would be? At least based on past experience with older imacs?
 
Aboo

If you opt for a new iMac it's usually $100 off on Black Friday.

Good luck and hope you get a good deal either way.:)
 
dust/smoke issue on screens

I had 4 screen replacements for my 20" imac screen which then seemed to sort the problem...until my warranty had run out then it came back. Even though it was a recurring problem the repair centre said it had been a certain amount of days since the problem so refused to repair.

I know absolutely loads of people who have had this problem with imac screens it's scary!

I'm not sure if it's dust or what, it appears to be like smoke stains at the edges of the screen.

I've just bought a 27" quad-core and just hoping the screen doesn't have the same issue but know what it's like to have this issue and feel sorry for those who have the same thing.

It's really really bad that this issue is still happening and Apple repair centres are still saying 'we've never seen this before' when clearly they have!

Totally sucks on such expensive machines!

gggrrrr
