If you're buying a new iMac, which model will you be buying? I'll probably be getting the 20-inch model because of the horrifically steep $400 price hike in Australia. You lucky Americans got a price cut.

I'm also in Australia and have ordered the 20-inch ... pretty expensive! I hope it is good! It's my first Mac! :D
 
Just got a new Imac. :)

First mac ever!! my wife uses them all the time so i have gone over to the dark side.

last gen 3.06 CPU, 2mb ram, 500 GB HD, 8800 GPU.

Just got from apple store $2412...

no doubt this will be the first of many posts....

cheers Paul...
 
24" 2.93GHz iMac, hopefully it will arrive by the end of this week, if not, next week for sure! My first Mac ever, and I am extremely excited! Getting a student discount, too, so it will cost me 1597 EUR. :D

None, I have a nice Mac Pro. And when that machine needs to be replaced with a new one, chances are that I won't buy from Apple anymore.
 
I'm still not 100%, but I think I'm going to go for the 2.66GHz 24". I just don't think I need to spend more on the next model up when I don't do anything particularly intensive.
 
Yeah the 4-6 is going to feel like a long time but in the long run its well worth it, I'd rather wait for the faster hardware than get one now with the specs I don't want.

A week is too much for me:D I don't need 4850 so GT130 suits nicely for me
 
Going to get the high-end one. 24" 3.06 GHz, 1.0 TB HDD, 4GB RAM ATI RADEON 4850, Numeric keyboard and Mighty Mouse w/Apple Care. Can't wait! :D
 
Needs another option on the poll

(i) Previous Gen 2008 iMac via special clearance prices as the new ones are waaaaay too expensive!

3.06Ghz 24" 2008 model at £565 less than the 2009 24" 2009 model.
