Congrats.:) What's a "fission drive"?? I think you mean "fusion drive".;)

Give us an update when you get it...time to put that Apple IIe out to pasture.;)

Nick, that's the next generation of power-supplies for the iMac. The hard drive generates power through fission and doesn't rely on the power grid..though there might be issues with the side-effects of the fission reaction and all..:)

But a fusion power supply is only 20 years away...as it has been for about 50 years. As the White Queen said, "The rule is, jam to-morrow and jam yesterday – but never jam to-day."

ROTFLMAO

If you posted that as a tweet I bet someone would pick it up as a real story.

When you give us an opening, even a crack, we're good at opening it up a bit..:)

Congrats on your purchase and let us know if we can help with you anything that's new to you from your Apple IIe days..I'm sure not much has changed..;)

I'm looking forward to my next Mac, it will be so much faster/better than this one that I think it comes with a frisson drive!
