Hi, I am going to be buying an iMac within the next few months. But before I buy I would like a couple of things clarifying so I am not disappointed. Now I'm looking at the 'iMac, 24-inch, 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo'. I wondering if I will be able to wire this up to my 37" LG plasma as an additional screen.

Also, I've been looking at the 'AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n and AirTunes' does this work as a router? Or possibly even an extension of the router (I mean extend the signal), also will this require the 'AirPort Extreme Base Station' or will my Sky router work fine?

Finally I was looking wondering if the iMac came with built-in speakers or if I would have to purchase some.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge, I have searched but not found satisfactory answers. Thanks in advance.

PS: Sorry if its in the wrong section.

Yes, your current touter will work. I use an airport extreme and I love it. I have very few problems with it ever.

Thanks for the fast response, do you know if the 'AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n and AirTunes' works as a router itself, an extension of the router which extends the signal or just merely a multimedia device? Many thanks

I have airport extreme and it is a great router. I live in Japan and finding a router with English support isn't easy so I ponied up for the Airport. Airtunes is just the wireless speaker side of things. It is a router!
