Woah there seems to be a lot people buying these right now. Yeah I could understand why you were trembling when you ordered it, very big investment.

Well I just did the same thing and ordered one online, same as viccles.
 
Seems like a lot of people are ordering these. Waiting until just after WWDC maybe (which was worth it because now we're eligible for the $10 SL upgrade). I just ordered the exact same machine as the top thread here (expect I got the wired number pad keyboard). I can't wait.
 
Wow very nice! I'm actually getting the very same setup very soon (but with the 1TB HD)! =]]
If you use a student discount, it saves a lot of money o_O or well I wouldn't know if it is "a lot" to some people but hey savings is savings XD
Basically If I were to get the same setup withOUT the savings, it'd end up being around $2400?? but with it I can save pretty much $200. This is including apple care =o
SO SO SO excited as well =]
Congrats~

I just ordered the 20" iMac $1,199 model. I only really use my computer for light graphic design, storing photos, music and some videos. Thats why I didn't go too crazy. I do plan on upgrading the ram though.

Any suggestions on where to go online for the cheapest (but quality) ram?

macsales.com/ otherworldcomputing.....good site... ram in the 2009 imacs is expensive though.....
 
Yeah I got an iMac like a week ago and I thought it was going to ship out of China but it came from the Bay Area.

I thight it shipped out in 24 hours. I guess that's not so true. I paid the extra 30 bucks for 2 day shipping. I really hope it's here Monday or Tuesday at the latest.
 
Received my new 24" iMac 2.66GHz, 4GB DDR3, 640GB H/D, Nvidia 9400M. Couldn't pass up the sweet deal, under $1200! Memory and H/D should be easily ugraded (and cheap) if you are somewhat handy.:D
 
Where did you get that price? I was thinking of getting the previous 24 inch 2.66 with the ATI graphics for 1099 after rebate but would consider the new one that you got if I can find that price.
 
I finally pulled the trigger this afternoon and went with a top-o-the-line iMac myself. A 24", 3.06 Ghz with the ATI Radeon HD 4850 card should be winging its way to me soon. I kept watching for one with the ATI card to show up on the refurbished list, but none ever did so I decided to go for a new one. I also went in for the "free" iPod Touch, which I plan on selling to help fund my purchase. It's been 5 years since my last Mac purchase, so I'm more than due for an update.

Old Muley, I like your sig:D
 
Since my old G5 apparently is about to die I will be getting the last gen 2.8, 2gb ram, 320 HDD, 2600Pro for about 1199.

eeeek. I've been wanting to purchase an imac myself. That would complete my apple lineup. I currently have a mbpro, macpro, iphone.

onlything missing in my setup is an iMac.


congrats on YOUR purchase.
 
:D Add me to the list too! After months of debating I figured I wasn't getting any younger so what the heck - Yesterday I ordered the 24", 2.93 Ghz with the ATI Radeon HD 4850. How many times have you checked your order status - I stopped counting. Congrats to the OP!
