Finally the iMac arrived in my shop today which I ordered a week ago!! *jumping happily* Yippie!!! It's the iMac 17 with 1.8 GHz. It really looks cool and stylish. But believe me, I had no idea it's gonna be THAT heavy... I really had trouble bringing the machine home. But I took a taxi.

Anyway, pictures:

It's really fast and nice, I'm really happy to have it now!!!

Greetz :cool:
 
Hope you will enjoy it as much as I do mine eventhough being the first batch that come out in switzerland, got it in september last year, I had to change the power supply in order to get rid of the crackling noise.

Other than that I can happily enjoy it's qualities even more so with airport express.

N'joy and congrats on your choice

Congrats! I wonder if there is a huge speed bump compared to your powerbook?

Even though the iMac has less RAM than the PB in the moment, I can clearly see the improvement on speed already. OS X boots faster, applications come up faster. That might as well also be because of 64-bit but I'm not sure about that. Probably because of the speed. My PB "only" has 1.33 GHz while the iMac has 1.8 GHz. However, I will put in 1 GB RAM instead of two because I can't afford 2 GB in the moment... It will be another increase on speed nontheless.

//EDIT:
It came with iLife '04, AppleWorks 6, this Nanosaur game, Marble Blast and WorldBook 2004. Quite nice though.
 
How come it came with iLife 04? ordered and iBook 12" for my wife a month ago and got iLife 05 in it ?
 
Well I don't know exactly if it's iLife '04 or '05, it just said 'includes iLife' on the big box. So I assume it's '04 as this came with my PB as well. But I have to check that later when I'm back home.
 
I bought mine a month ago, and I think it came with iLife '04 installed and with the CD and DVD for installing '05
 
My mini came with iLife 04 on the hard drive and 05 on DVD - I had to update them. Lame, but not crippled ;)

Congratulations - hope you enjoy it.
 
On my iMac there is iLife '04 installed (for example it says GarageBand 1.1.0). I checked the DVDs that came with the Mac - but there's no iLife '05 on those for some strange reason.

But oh yeah, I will enjoy that machine... You better believe that... :D

You should contact Apple and inform them that you just bought your iMac and it did not come with iLife 05. They will make sure to help you.
