After trying to get through to the Apple Store via Phone for the last hour or so I finally got through and spoke to someone across the pond (love the American accent btw!), he was very helpful and I couldn’t be more excited about finally getting my Mac (this must sound sad since I’m 21 years old!).

I ended up going for a 20” 2.4GHz iMac, iPod Touch and Apple Care, which came in at a total of £1093 which I thought was a bargain especially since I will also get another £85 rebate once my iPod ships at the end of September, which means I can put that extra money towards either another 1GB stick of RAM and an External Hard Drive… or maybe both!

The strange part is ever since Leopard was announced I had waited and waited and waited to order once it was released fearing that if I ordered before I would be wasting money, but strangely enough having to buy leopard in the future is the least of my concerns, I’m just happy to know that my new “baby” will be with me in the next 3-7 working days and that the iMac or iPod Touch wont have a major update next week!!

Thanks to everyone here who has answered my questions and helped me make my decision, you guys really are a friendly forum and I’m sure I’ll spend just as much time here once my Mac arrives, just look for the HELP threads , I hope I will love my Mac as much as you guys love yours and I can’t wait for the fun to begin!

Thanks Again!

P.S - iMac + Apple Care + iPod Touch for £1008 after rebate!

P.P.S - Sorry about that i just cant get over how cheap it was!

I wouldn’t say we get cheap electronics in the UK, normally we pay over the odds for everything

Also i noticed that my delivery date isnt until the 9th of October, which is a joke :(

My iMac is just the standard one available, no changes what so ever so I can’t understand why it wouldn’t ship sooner, they wouldn’t hold it until the iPod Touch was available would they?
