TvvqKMZ72bsklauw5 Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 That's killer dude! I have a 20" iMac though I wish I had the money for the 24" (I wanted a 20" the day the Core 2 Duos were added to the iMacs >_<). You should share some photos!

drdarkman Posted April 19, 2007 Author Share Posted April 19, 2007 dont worry about the photos, i'll get some up for ya. but nothing on the insides of it or anything. i'm not that crazy to do something like that. first need to get bootcamp installed, then setup parallels. Is it true that parallels doesn't support 3d when your in the mac os using windows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can set it to run in window mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockett Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 AFAIK you can press cmd+H to hide WoW when in fullscreen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest: Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 But then you'll always be waiting. It's more of a design wait. They are redesigning the iMacs so it will be obvious if you have an "outdated" mac or a "new" mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quelkin Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 If you don't wait for the new models, strangers will point at you in the street and exchange knowing glances. "His Form Factor is so last week." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
