iMac purchase

I couldn't quite justify splashing on a new i5 27" iMac so I'm picking up a mint s/hand 24" later on (from the MM). Applecare til May 2012 too so a little peace of mind in that regard :cool:

I was trying to get that for my housemate, damn you!!!
 
As far as im aware the 21.5" screen is the same technology as the 27", minus the additional pixel density that takes it beyond 1080p. A 27" screen seems a little ridiculous when I'd only be sitting a foot away from it...plus I can't justify the added expense right now unfortunately.

Am I correct in thinking the hardware issues have only been evident in the 27" varients? Or have I just missed other threads?

Thanks in advance.

The 27" models with production before week 53 (and don't ask me how you can have a week 53; maybe it's a Chinese thing...) have occurrences of yellow tinge and flickering, and we have just seen a few 2.8 Quad units manufactured in week 53 that have the flicker problem. Very rare in percentage of units sold, and apparently fixed as of 2010 production runs.
