Having read that review, I don't think the iMac has improved all that much in performance from the original 2.16 ghz C2D white model I have. Taking into account the quality of old and new 20" monitor, one might argue that the old ones are better.

| Not only are the new 20" displays inferior, they're also glossy. I don't think Apple realizes how much of a hang up that is for some people. The rest is simply awesome. I really like the new aluminum styling. |
