Wow; had to really dig hard to find something about which I could complain. ;D
Thanks for your kind wishes. I've been running this iMac for about 24 hours so far and the only thing that's interrupted my work has been the need to locate some Intel-native codecs. However, for those I couldn't find, I simply made a copy of QT Player, switched it to run in Rosetta, and have it available for when some quirky AVI doesn't want to play nice; the Rosetta-enabled version works with all of the codecs I dragged over from my old G5.
Now I just need more RAM (and isn't that an old story?).
