What weapon did you chose? 20IN-MAC or the 24IN-MAC

I plan on getting the 24" as soon as my Apple store gets more. I'm so impatient!

on a completely unrelated note: Anyone familiar with the typical Apple store's shipment schedule?

I just ordered the 20" high end model. I would of gotten the 24", but don't see the point really. I photo edit, movie edit, CGI design, on my 20" and I'm happy. I don't see the point in paying the extra $300, unless your job requires it. Though, from what I've heard talking to Pixar employee's, designers for SCEA, and such. 20" is required and higher is acceptable.

The 20" will be above my neck, so the viewing "problems" won't be so noticeble, correct?

I'm impatient to a degree aswell. I can only wait so long. Then I start doing cooky stuff like splitting peoples heads open and taking their brains and taking their power... wait...

after doing some research i found out that the 20" imac uses a TN panel. as a graphic designer and purchasing my first mac for my career/studies (still a student though so cash is tight) i have decided to just go for the macbook pro and get myself a not too costy professional grade monitor, probably the dell 30" since its an S-IPS panel and it way cheaper than the apple 30". I'm still wondering though if anyone knows what type of panel the 24" uses? does anyone know? i know well unless i havent researched too well that there isnt any S-IPS 24" panels. the dell 2007wfp uses either a S-PVA or an S-IPS panel do the guy purchasing that 20" imac and uses photoshop etc. your probably going to get better quality and accuracy with that dell 20" than your imac.

That's fine with me. I'm keeping my Dell. So I will compare visual quality once it gets here. Eyes, and numbers are completely different. 20" is enough, 17" is enough. If your a true good artist, 13" for editing is all you need. It's true.

I will save files, and interchange with my Dell and iMac. Best of both worlds. Swell as seeing quality differentials.

Just ordered a 24" with 4 gigs and a 750 Gb drive...

Rich

Wow you actually paid 700+ for 4gb of memory?

Dont get me wrong i can afford it but i dont see the point in paying so much for it when other outlets offer the same at no more then 250 bucks...
