hi,

i've read in disk-related topics that the iMac Flatpanel is not able to work with drives > 120G. Now, the current series of iMac's are available with 160G drives... which would imply that the IDE controller has changed. Also, it uses DDR memory which the last generation did not if I remember correctly.

now, i just ordered this new iMac 15" for my sister and was wondering what else is different in the current series iMac, compared to say the 800MHz G4 with regular SDRAM.

TIA
