A single quad processor configuration is priced in the same ballpark as the 2.8 GHz 24" iMac, has double the processor power and has much greater expandability. I already have two monitors so I wont need to buy another one and I don't like the idea of a bundled monitor with the Imac. I am holding back on the purchase because all the Mac rumor sites (such as http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/ ) feel that a new iMac is coming within the next few weeks and I think that is plausible. I want to see what it looks like before a final decision. My current Mac is an Intel Macbook (not Pro). I bought it a year ago as a trial to replace a 2.8GHz Windows XP and it turned out so much faster than my old system that I have not yet gotten a desktop. -- Clive http://clive.moss.net/blog/
