Expose works normally (windows stay on their respect displays). I have 256MB of vram.

Dont you guys find 20" tad big and the 17" a tad small

Well i do :/

Michael Jolly · Feb 20, 2006, 05:27 PM

i like my 17 inch its just the right size any bigger i would have no space, though a larger HD would be nice

jwoods · Feb 20, 2006, 06:08 PM

I like the 20". I wished they offered, say....a 25in or bigger, but the 20 seems to be about right.

The 20" is not big enough! (that's why I have my desktop spanned with a 21" CRT)

yo Mizzou02RS, those Klipsch speaks are super nice. I was going to order a set, but I cant find them anymore, granted I didn try very hard at all.

I got them at Amazon.com...about $142. They have them.

Do a search on Shopzilla.com or Yahoo shopping, too.

I would be first in line if Apple released a 23 inch iMac. I don't see why not. It's technically possible and they could price it at $2199.00. Stock it with a 500g hard drive and 1Gig memory standard and you couldn't keep the thing on the shelves.

Michael Jolly · Feb 21, 2006, 11:27 AM

macwayne you couldn't keep the thing on the shelves

yes you could hardly any would be able to lift it lol

iREZ · Feb 27, 2006, 01:30 AM

you could bet your bottom dollar that apple will release a HD iMac later this year. im not one to start a rumor, but it'd be stupid for them not to make one available. either a 23" display, or HD 20.??" screen

Hi, this is my first post here. I recently switched to Apple with a 20" Intel iMac w/ 2g of ram, the 256mb video card, and 250g hard drive. I love it.

iREZ · Mar 2, 2006, 01:36 AM

Even the shelves might not be able to lift it. Maybe that's what he meant.

I feel that the bigger the screen gets on the iMac (or any integrated machine) the less I can justify getting it, because I'd want a faster machine every year or so. It's a pity to have to move the screen on as well.

My setup...

My humble setup including my 20" iMac Core Duo, 17" PowerBook running at 1.67GHz, a 20" Dell FP connected to my Dell Fedora Core 4 Linux box and my iMac. There's a Treo 650 in there somewhere too, another PC that keep at home for running backups from the office over SSH. My dog Rocco is chilling down in the bottom right corner of the photo. Anna Kournikova graces my Dell FP and the lovely Rachel Weisz of The Mummy fame (and others) is featured on my iMac display. Please also note the 10+ year old Bengals coffee mug, and original Apple Macintosh mouse pad that shipped with the original Mac.
