I total agree with Riba. It is not totally lust worthy in design, but 
it is an acceptable upgrade (vs. the ugly G4iMac) if it becomes 
necessary for my needs. It is more beautiful in the flesh than on the 
screen. I saw on at a trade show 2 weeks ago.

How silent is it? Anybody had it in a totally silent room?
