This is all very disappointing.
Even the promo video sucks big donkey balls.

Compare that to the original flat-panel iMac and it just lacks class. Guess they couldn't get Seal, Annie Leibovitz and Coppola to like it as much as the previous. Are you guys all liking this better than the original flat-panel? Only a couple of people here so far share my opinion about this one being not on par to the previous design. :\
The original design was kinda cute at first, but the more I looked at it, the less I liked it. The large base just ate up too much room on the desk, and the tray-loading optical drive was a step back from the slot-loading drive of the G3 iMacs.
I like the sleekness and simplicity of the new model. They are right with drawing parallels between it an the iPod. Both a very clean designs - all you need is right there and nothing else is tacked on to clutter it up. The new design struck me as a bit dull at first glance, but it grows on you (especially when you look at the real-world photos instead of the website graphics).
I just wish Logitech would make a version of the MX Duo that matches the iMac's white color scheme and adds a dedicated eject button, so I could kick the Apple mouse/keyboard to the curb and not throw off the color scheme.
