The $1,199 iMac is just fine the way it is. Compared to yesterday's model, it has double the RAM, a 400 MHz (!!!) faster processor, a much improved display, and IIRC 180GB more hard drive space, too. Plus a wireless keyboard and mouse - a Magic Mouse, no less - is standard.

I expected some of those things, but not all of them! But I suppose there will always be someone who "mehs" any updates...
Wait, are you sure the 21.5" display is actually that much better? I don't think it's LED-backlit. I think it might still be a TN panel. There are a lot of 21.5", 1080p, glossy TNs you can get for under $200 these days.
