After years of drooling behind it and about a week's contemplation.... finally bought an iProduct.

As the tradition goes in this region of our universe, let the pics talk....

That's a pretty big box... wonder what could be in it?

... well, here goes...

ooooh... look at that!! An iMac, 27".

The big black n gray aluminum beauty.



This is a size of a display, but there's so, so much packed in it.



The iFamily.... happy together.



Plug-in, set it up and in less than 10 mins, you start using it.

Switched the wireless keyobard for full size wired keyboard.



Switched the stupid magic mouse for awesome magic touchpad (the otherwise mouse duties fulfiled by Logitech G400)



The slot-loading superdrive and SD card reader.



iSight HD camera for facetime and other webcam fun.



-------------------------------------------------------------------

However, it's not for me. Despite my love for certain iProducts, I'm very much a build my own desktop kind of guy. This 27" beauty is for a special someone and now she has kind of completed her iCollection from smallest being iPhone and biggest being, this 27" iMac (and an iPad 1st gen plus 11" Macbook Air taking place in between).

Specs for the spec-horders (oops, me being one).
  • 27-inch LED-backlit display (Resolution: 2560x1440)
  • 2.7GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 with 6MB on-chip shared L3 cache
  • 4GB (two 2GB) of 1333MHz DDR3 memory (planned upgrade to 8GB soon)
  • 1TB (7200 rpm) hard drive
  • AMD Radeon HD 6770M graphics with 512MB GDDR5 memory
  • FaceTime HD camera
  • Built-in stereo speakers with Two internal 20-watt high-efficiency amplifiers
  • Built-in microphone
  • Two Thunderbolt ports
  • One FireWire 800 port (7 watts)
  • Four USB 2.0 ports
  • SDXC card slot
  • Slot-loading 8x SuperDrive with 4x double-layer burning
  • 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet (RJ-45 connector)
  • IR receiver
  • 802.11n and Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR

Total Damages: 89k

In the other news, I bought Dell U2412M for myself, but face it... that's a lame show-off against this (at least till I get a second one to make it a dual-display setup).

congratulation Yogi. nice iFamily.

27" is big i mean pretty big. but watching Full HD movie on it is pure bliss and Not to forget High quality IPS LCD panel which looks good at extreme angles.
 
Thanks #cisco_tech, yes, the IPS panel on this is just too damn good. I mean at extreme angles, it makes my eIPS 2412M looks like el-cheapo display.

The 27" Thunderbolt display!!! I keep drooling over it when I go to Croma every time. That is easily one of the finest displays sans the absence of few extra inputs.

Hearty congrats to both of you.

PS: How about a panorama shot of the room?
 
Superb - congrats. Yup, I found the magic mouse pretty useless too. Got a trackpad and a cheapo logitech.

What do you mean "first iproduct'? Isn't that a MBA next to it?

Edit: Re read your post. Did you mean this is the firs that *you* bought, and the rest is hers? Lucky her, great gift.
 
Man... the design and style on these iMacs
<
!!!

#YoGi-Sama... why the U2412M? Judging from your posts on FB page, i thought you would be going for the U2410. Costlier yes, but a much better panel nevertheless.
