"Except there's no indication that they'd update the graphics but every indication they might do a Penryn update."

Agreed, Hence the reason I will pursue a MacPro if the latest incarnation of IMac is without a graphics boost.

"Then there's always the superior graphics in the white iMac if everything else is speedy enough for you. "

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the "white IMac?" From the apple store and the top of the line 2.8 Extreme machine, the exact video card quote is;

"ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB memory"

Is this machine available in white with a better GPU? It does look from the store site to be the brushed aluminum that I have seen in the Apple store...
Again...I am a relatively new Mac User, so if there is a better graphics solution, by all means...let me know!

I have to restrain myself to the IMacs....because I have no self-control when I start trying to configure a Mac Pro...my machine always ends up costing 7 or 8 large...and I haven't even chosen a monitor!

It's the previous generation iMac with the Nvidia GeForce 7600GT. See http://www.barefeats.com/imacal.html
