Can't wait to get one for uni, will be great for my course and then I'll be completely mac-based.
However, I just want to know if the Ati 2600 graphics chip is good enough or is it worth paying a little extra for the 8800?
Also, is the memory as easy to upgrade as the MacBook, and is it the same type of RAM that's available from overclockers?

Cheers guys
 
Ah ok, I'm probs gonna get it with uni discount when I get down there on thursday, would there be much of a saving?
 
Justin, could you price me up the cheaper 24" with an added 8800 and a 500gb drive?
Thanks!

Good enough for what? If you don't play games or do much 3D work, don't bother, it won't make a difference. If you're interested in gaming though, definitely get the 8800 because the 2600 won't perform well.

Yeh I think I may play COD4 in Windows and am doing some visual work on my course so would be good to have a fast graphics chip.
 
Oooo updates from Apple!

That's mac people for ya!

It didn't come yesterday as the driver ran out of time, apparently. The nice woman on the phone said she'd ensure it would come by lunch time today, if not then to give her a call and she'll personally see that it gets delivered to me asap :)
