Congrats!
I use a PC to 5-box now (used to use a Macbook Pro), but I use a Mac for e-mail and communication at my shop. Love it.
Glad to hear about your new machine!!
Grats!! What screen size did you get? I love the build quality of the iMacs and the 24" is huge.
Have fun and happy boxing.
If it's 2.4 ghz then it's a 20", the 24's start at 2.8 ghz.Quote:

I have the 24", 2.8 ghz with the HD 2600Pro. I love this machine, it's a beast! :) I had a dual G5 with 8 gigs of ram and a 23" Cinema before, and this thing blows that away. (I'd love a MacPro, but I can't afford one right now)
Congrats, I know you'll love it. I went from a pretty fast G5 to an iMac, and that difference was huge, I can't imagine how much better it is for you!Quote:

Two things:
Get 4 gigs of ram. I got mine at Fry's for $50 for two sticks of 2 gig, works fine. Ram is dirt cheap right now, there's no reason not to max it out.
Download SMCFanControl, and keep an eye on your temps. I run 3 copies, with zero problems, but I need to crank the fans up a little during long sessions.
Other than that, enjoy! :D I love my iMac, best purchase I've ever made, I love the amount of desk space I have now, the screen is gorgeous, and it's fast - and best of all...it's SILENT. My G5 was getting loud in it's old age, with all of it's fans!
