HOLY CRAP! I WANT ONE!

The new L3 cache is nice, the Radeon 7500 kicks the crap outta my small 16 meg one, oh well, I've had this one for 6 months, and I'm happy.

Yeah the have gone up.

Yeah i think they're around that. i know that the 550MHz( low spec one, before the power increase) one was £1699 and now the the low spec one is £1849. I am buying a mac at the end of July was thinking about either a powerbook or an iMac but it looks like it will be and iMac now.
