I think the upgrades are great. Quad core in the entry level with a price drops across the board is awesome.
I would have liked to have seen an option to upgrade to 1TB in the entry level model, but 500MB is more than adequate for an entry level machine.
Nice update! |

I would have liked to see the i7, and the 6970, in the 21 inch model. To me fewer pixels to push means better performance.

I'm getting tempted by the 27", but I think I'll hang on for Lion
and hang back a bit to see if there are any display problems reported _________________ Phil
