Dissapointing to be honest. What about the iMac's!? Anyone any ideas what the old UK prices were?
P.S. I was desperately hoping this might be Think Secret being fed dud information. Clearly not.

now have bto option for up to 2x400 gb hard drives. as unexcited as i am about the processor and stuff, i think it's a stop gap, and as such, it could be worse.... i think.

Looks like thinksecret was right. They are taking all the fun out of this. Somewhat unimpressive but oh well time to start thinking about WWDC.

Yeesh, talk about a crap upgrade. I'm going back to bed. Wake me up when we hit 3GHz.

What the heck is a Radeon 9650? Get on the ball, Apple. We need x800's for top of the line graphics card. Atleast put a 9800 Pro in it...

I think the coolest thing on the list is the double layer DVD drives. 16 X Double Layer drives! Probably won't work too well for regular video DVD's, but for Data Storage? Man it's like, what 8 gigs on a disc now??

I'm more disappointed that there is not a Single 2.0GHz than anything.
BUT
BUT
BUT, the 20" and 23" Displays were cheapened up a bit. I want to get the 20" and now for $799???.... Now I like that!
