If you could change one thing about the current gen iMac, what would it be?

[Gurutech]

Give me back the iMac G4 Design............................

 

[omenamato]

Move Superdrive in to the stand and maybe ad a few usb ports there.

 

[Xenesis]

The option of the 7300/7600GT in the 20" iMac. Apart from that, I'm pretty good.

 

[JAT]

16) "Glossy" Screen with faster Response Time
17) Powered USB Keyboard

16 is a glaring problem, I didn't realize they were so slow.
17 is not much possible. Powered USB hubs are just that, powered. As in, power cord. You want that attached to your keyboard?

 

[Queso]

Inter-dimensional portal to the Seychelles. But that should only come on mine. You lot would just make the place seem crowded

 

[Arcus]

A microphone in line in addition to the already line in.

Why do they never have a mic in ?!?!?

 

[OwlsAndApples]

you all forgot the dream-feature:

built-in printer behind the screen. Printed sheets come out the bottom, sliding beautifully onto your... keyboard.

hmm i'll keep thinking about that one.

mmmm sounds nice...might as well go all out and have the iMac absorb nearby atoms to create ink and paper within the machine so it never runs out!!
I'm happy, it's my first mac and I would rather keep it the same than go back to the XP 'teletubby land' GUI.

Definitely higher resolution and better graphic card.

 

[Perfectionist]

Now we're talkin !! So far we have :

1) Better Graphics Card (PCI Express)
2) Surround Sound Card
3) TV Tuner Card (iTV)
4) Upgradeable components with removable back (can't believe older iMacs did this but they changed it for the new models, WTF !!)
5) Fan/Temp Sensors
6) Faster SuperDrive (eventually HD/BluRay compatible!)
7) Ports/Jacks mounted underneath
8) Ability to turn off just the screen (can't believe this isn't there!?)
9) Available in more colours and with smaller "chin"
10) Pull-out Carry Handle
11) More Screen Inputs (DVI)
12) Memory Card Readers
13) Swivel/Raise/Lower/Portrait Move-able Base
14) Cheaper & Quieter
15) 2nd Hard Drive
16) "Glossy" Screen with faster Response Time
17) Powered USB Keyboard
Plus my own gripes
18) Adjustable iSight with Lens Cover
19) Forward Firing Speakers
20) Sexy Blonde Nymphomaniac included with AppleCare

If mankind can split the atom and put a man on the moon - than all the above should be frikkin possible too .....

A really loud Fan.

I am a switcher recently from the PC and dad gum I can't get used to this silence in the room. I mean com'on apple, why can't you put a noisey little fan so us pc's can feel at home?

Wow, that would be very cool. Hawaii would be a nice option, too.

But be happy just with a faster video card.
