Got the first of three iMacs today (a 17" 2.0Ghz Dual Intel Core job), and very nice it is too.

I was going to post a picture, but then I realise the software for transfering pictures from my phone is on the computer I've just de-commisioned.

The final two will be the 20-inch jobs.

The idea is so that I can start programming on a Mac - I think I've taken GSDK as far as the current version can take it, so its time to start developing on something new.

In addition, I wont also need to get another set of AV licenses again...

Its a very nice, sharp display.

Or have to bother paying for C++

I'm going to buy the same iMac once I have money, so let me how it gets out for you, seems pretty awesome. Although I would have waited until Leopard is released (Or would you get a free or reasonbly cheap upgrad?)

Yeah, but why three? I have a lot of computers but they kinda grew in numbers over the years. Rarely get more than one at a time (laptops, PDAs, and media streamers don't count....)

I wish I had the money to build my own PC now! But I can't complain I am gettin quite a high income. Around about $500 a month (I am under the age of 18) but some of that has to go to medical bills (Yep I am at a chrioprator) then some of it has to go to other nesseccities!

But soon I will be able to save, save, save! And then I can build the ulitmate computer of my dreams! Mwaaahh!

Nice iMac! I heard there great!
