| The only bummer about this (IMO) is that they don't offer a "glossy" display option on the 24" iMac. Other than that, this rocks!

| I guess maybe the glossy would be good for desktops, but I'm still unsure about using it on laptops, I have enough trouble in sunlight already!

| On a side-note, the Mac mini has been updated, too, with a faster processor.

| Not a Core 2 Duo though. Disappointing!

| Aside from having 64 bit support, is there anything special about the Core 2 Duo processors? |

| They're more power efficient than the original Core Duo, have a larger L2 cache, and offer something like 30% better all-around performance (along with other improvements, like an extra ALU, faster FSB, among other things). http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets...oc.aspx?i=2808
