Should I open up my new iMac?

It's only 7am at Apple HQ... If there is an update it wouldn't have happened already :x

True, one could still happen... and if it does I think I'll have enough time to cancel my order as it isn't going to ship for 3-5 days. I'm betting I won't have to though.

Yeah probably, you have more guts than me though

Should I open up my iMac that I just purchased last week. I've been using my Windows machine up until yesterday when it finally crashed. It was on it's last legs for awhile and I was putting off on opening my iMac hoping for an update like everyone else. Yeah...I know I spent a lot of money on an iMac with outdated hardware, but I needed something, and I wanted to get rid of Windows.

From all the rumors about the updates, the updates on the iMac will take advantage of the Open CL when Snow Leopard comes out, will my iMac have any problems with that? What would be the major difference of Open CL on the current NVIDIA 8800 and the possible update on the new iMac?

I may not even notice a difference since I will not be doing any heavy video editing, or much gaming.

I'm tired of waiting...don't know if I can wait much longer. I've been using my 10gb, pentium 4 for 6 years now, so this would be a major step up for me using the iMac that I purchased....I can use the iMac 6 years, and then purchase the latest and greatest at that time, or maybe just upgrade in a few years. If I can survive on my old system for 6 years, this should be a breeze.

You are overdue! Open that thing up and start tweaking it!

You're kidding, right?
