I got impatient, and also concerned that the 27" would be too big for my needs. So I canceled the online order and went to the Apple Store in Altamont Springs yesterday.

The first thing I noticed when I walked in was that there were no new iMacs on display. Found the clerk I had an appointment with and he explained that they hadn't come in yet, but they were expecting deliveries any minute.

He went in back to check again and came back to tell me that the truck just pulled up but they didn't know what was on it. A few minutes later he came back with a 21.5" iMac. I was the first one to get a new iMac at that store.

Set up and installed now. Transferred easily from my MacBook. It is a thing of beauty. The new mouse takes a few minutes to get used to. It is like no mouse you have ever used before. No buttons, just a touch sensitive surface.

The screen is beautiful. I am glad that I got the smaller screen. I am using it on a partner desk and the larger screen would have completely blocked my view out the window.
