[QUOTE="Cherokee, post: 502327, member: 28697"] Welcome back the Mac family! There is a chance you will get a free upgrade. There are no guarantees though as we don't know the actual release date. Personally, I would wait until the end of October and get it pre-installed. Note: Buying your RAM from a third party (crucial, etc.) will be much cheaper than buying it through Apple. It's easy to install through a panel on the bottom. A monkey could do it. Parallels will run Windows in the OSX environment. Don't expect the same performance as running Bootcamp. It will suffice for a lot of apps that aren't resource hungry. Having lots of RAM should help as well. You can run dual monitors. The iMac has a Mini-DVI output port. Don't know for sure on this one. If I was to speculate, I would say it's on the way. Maybe that's wishful thinking as I want one as well. ;D Check the specs for Mac compatibility when shopping for other wireless options. [/QUOTE]
