[QUOTE="WakeCarver, post: 608030, member: 37501"] Blu-ray is the next gen winner, HD-DVD conceded the format war about a week ago. If you remember blank DVD media was just as expensive when it first came out. Give it time and the price will drop to be competitive with DVD. Now to answer the OP's question. In my opinion the iMac will go through 2 revisions before Blu-ray is added. There should be a update forthcoming in the next few weeks to support the updated intel processors but there is nothing wrong with the current generation. If you need a new computer now buy now, if you can wait then wait. This may not help but it is the best advice I can give. I just bought a new iMac about a week ago knowing a update would be coming out soon, but, because I needed a new computer for my wife, and I knew the update would likely be minor I went ahead and bought it.
