Rebate? Will this new iMac have the same $100 rebate as the previous model?

If past history is an indicator, yes, there will be a $100 rebate on the top end model. But it won't come for several weeks until the initial rush slows down. Current rebate on old models ends on 8/13, so I'd expect 8/14 to be the earliest we see a rebate on these models.

Yes, Those rebates are way cool and w/ prime shipping and no tax you can't beat Amazon's deals anywhere!

This has been a very helpful discussion. Thanks. So far Amazon has not mentioned a rebate -- so I will wait and see.

The Apple Website says as of 6pm today all new Imac's are preinstalled with Leopard. I wonder when Amazon will start doing the same.

Taylor: One last comment, click on the link below, it will take you to the Amazon page where they are selling the "old version" of the Mac you referenced. Scroll to the middle of the page and you will see a link to the "new version" of the same Mac. I'll leave it to you to make a side by side comparison of the tech specs, software, enhancements. Interesting, Amazon does not list a price of the new Mac. Apple iMac MD093LL/A 21.5-Inch Desktop (OLD VERSION) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

What rebate ? The Core 2 Duos have no rebate yet. The site says it will be available Nov 24 but I hope in a week maybe they will have it. It was the same with the 80 GB video iPod.

got it in 7 days? that's good. too bad I ordered on sept 7th (came out on the 6th, I waited for the rebate to actually show up) and it hasn't even been recognized by amazon yet. hopefully i'll have it sometime next week or the week after that. I woulda got it from apple, but I save 270 bucks thru amazon.

Actually, up until a couple of days ago on Apples iMac 20" Customize your Mac page, it said in the learn more link under RAM to 'choose the 1x1GB stick if you plan on upgrading later' or something like that. I emailed them... in a hopeless attempt to get them to actually add the option but all they did was removed that part in the learn more section :(

I just received an NA895LL/A 15" MBP that was ordered on 11/23 (and arrived today 11/27). It came with iLife08 and Tiger preinstalled on the hard drive, the 2 MBP OS/bundle install disks, and a Leopard 'CPU Drop-in Kit' DVD (which was not installed). I'm going to install Leopard from scratch then install iLife08 from the 2 original OS install disks.Apple sales says there is no longer an up-to-date program for iLife08 FWIW, if you get one of these from amazon with the older iLife suite you're SOL ($80 to buy a copy of 08).

Yes. Free upgrade installation video walkthroughs and cheap tools are available on macsales.com link to my resource: "http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/Intel_Core_2_Duo_PC2-6400"

I contacted Customer Service. The June 3 date is correct... the rebate is NOT in effect.I doubt they're intentionally trying to trick us; it's probably just a mistake. But, I contacted customer service, and they clearly know about it, so let's see how long it takes them to fix it...

Good point. It's October and the Amazon iMacs still ship with Snow Leopard? Every other reseller I've checked is offering models with Lion pre-installed. You guys just lost a sale.

Yeah, but they just lowered the price $5 here on Amazon for the Family Pack. I ordered mine from Apple and although it will be nice to get it on Friday so I can do a clean install on my main computer over the weekend, I might have been willing to wait a few days to get it and save almost $10 (since Apple pops you for sales tax as well). Sounds like the classic "trade-off".

I think you have to buy directly from Apple for that. Check the Apple website. The price is the same.

Yes. Bear in mind that the pre-2010 iMac models do not have an add-on option if I recall correctly, meaning that you will have to completely replace your previous HDD (or SSD if you had previously replaced it). If you are confused about the installation process, here is a great link that gives an overview of the steps necessary: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=842548 Likewise, it never hurts to check with the manufacturer since they are the ones who give you your warranty on products. Check with Mac and/or Crucial tech support if you have any specific technical questions that you may have.

JC - do you have any update on shipping status for your iMac (24" right?)? Amazon now says Sep 20 - Oct 4 timeframe for shipping new orders, and I'm hoping that you've seen something a lot better than that...

DAB, just read your reply, I've been debating the same issue. My plan is for video and photo editing, along with music recording. I think I'll need the extra HD space and the GPU would be handy. I think you just convinced me. But I'm waiting until after August 2010 to see if there are new iMacs being announced.
