[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1156058, member: 56379"] Most 27" iMacs come with 4 gig of ram standard...so I would find it hard to believe that someone is throwing in an extra 8 gig "for free".;) You can get a similar refurbished 27" iMac from the Apple Store for $1269: [url=http://store.apple.com/us/product/FB952LL/A?mco=MTU2MzE1ODI]Refurbished iMac 27-inch 3.06GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - Apple Store (U.S.)[/url] ...that's $331 less than $1600. Which might cover the cost of the extra/"free" Applecare & the extra/"free" 8gig of ram. So that extra 8 gig of ram & extra Applecare probably isn't "free".;) But the iMac you're looking at does have the slightly faster 3.33ghz cpu (vs. the 3.06ghz cpu in the link) - Nick [/QUOTE]
