Looks sweet. Shame I’m not in the market for a new desktop, though.

iMac with next generation quad-core processors>>>>>>>

AKA Sandy Bridge. Apple has them and so do Windows machines. They run cooler on less wattage http://computers.shop.ebay.com/Computer-Components-/3667/i.html?_nkw=I5+SANDY+BRIDGE&_catref=1&_dmpt=Desktop_PCs&_fln=1&_ipg=&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282

Should be interesting to see what the first Thunderbolt peripheral will cost.

Figures. Three months after the guy in the Apple store swore they had no information about an impending upgrade to the iMac. And I bought one. (In his defense, he probably didn’t know, given how close to the vest Apple plays this stuff.)

Anyway, glad to see the upgrades are significant and not just incremental.

Still enjoying my 2010 iMac. Expect to be using it for 3-5 more years at least.
