I have a huge collection of DVDs....all legal purchases.
Some of them are from different regions, and i understand that you can change regions only 5 times before the drive gets locked into one region.
Does any one have a solution for this?

You could try hacking (replacing) your DVD firmware. Thats a permanent solution and makes your drive completely region-free, as long as its compatible with the drive..
Congrats in getting the iMac after all. Which one did you get - the 17 or the 20? How do you like it so far?
