	karenhaslam, My main Mac (by far & away these days) will be same model as Dragonfly's: 20" iMac with ATI HD2600 video. Other Mac: 12" iBook. FWIW, though my next Mac will be a Mini (purely for a matte monitor set-up), that's not to say that I'd never buy another iMac, despite the glossy screen. In fact, I consider it to be a quite outstanding all-in-one! Wouldn't mind another, more powerful iMac later on, but only well after after I get my Mini set-up in place. Meantime my present iMac will probably be used alongside the Mini for its natural lifespan, however long that'll be.
