[QUOTE="iMacGal, post: 394300, member: 31187"] Too bad you didn't go for the 2.33, but you will still love your iMac. I have the 24" 2.33 with 2 Gigs, and am shocked to find out that you can't just add 1 more Gig... you must buy all 3 gigs at once, even when upgrading. Also, I paid for the faster shipping too, but was disappointed to find out, once you add a Gig, faster processor, or a better video card, you have to wait for it to be custome built overseas, then shipped. So, that next day shipping we paid extra for, means the day after they have finished building it, they will ship it. It took 9 days to receive mine from the day I ordered. However, it was well worth the wait! I'll never go back to a PC, and I can still use all my Windows Programs, running them under Parallels (A fantastic software program that allows you to install Windows & use it simultaniously with the Mac. Yes, both at the same time!) Had one little issue... the Mac side was slower than the Windows side, on all Internet applications, and even the Mac Tec support couldn't help. My cousin finally figured it out. Under Network preferances, he configured the DHCP settings manually (Ip & DNS numbers) and both sides now FLY! Congrats on your new purchase & enjoy! [/QUOTE]
