My New iMac 2.0

[teerexx52]

I just got home from the Apple Store with my new 2.0 Imac. They weren't even on display but they had them. I currently am using a MacBook 2.16 well. The iMac is great. Screen is super and everything works fine. No dead pixels. I've included a link to a few pixs I took.

How do you find the speed compared to the MacBook? Have you tried any video editing with it?

Cool, that's what I hope to do after I unload my 20" 2.16 iMac in a day or two. Just a slight bump, but I'm also going to pick up a 2GB stick to make it 3GB total.

if you order 1gb does is come with 2x 512 or 1x 1gb?

Does the Apple remote fit on top of the computer or does it sit beside or where does it sit??????

I have 2 gb memory in the macbook. They seem similar but I haven't done any video editing yet. For my tastes it seems plenty fast even with the 1gb memory. I did order a second 1gb chip which will be here Friday. Then I'll know more.

I haven't opened the case but it says 1 chip 1 x 1gb so one slot is open

I can't see that its magnetic. No indication of that as I move it around the case. So, mine is just sitting underneath it right now.

I haven't had an Imac previous to this so I can't compare but this screen is incredibly bright!!!

Yeah, I noticed that at the Apple Store last night but I like it.

I do as well. I like a really bright screen. I've seen alot written so far about the glare from the screen but I have it right next to outside windows in my house and I'm not having a problem with that.

I believe aluminum is not magnetic, so it makes sense that the remote doe not attach like the old imac. Not a big deal, as on my core Duo imac the remote tended to fall of anyway.
