    I need this on a 17" MacBook Pro in January.

    Or else.

    I'm not sure exactly what's impressive about this... Hp's all in one PC has HDMI in so that you can use them as a TV for your other devices. I think Sony's has it too.

    But I guess this makes the iMac the ultimate apple HTPC. You just use it as a TV and plug in all your other things into it. It's a pretty awesome idea :)

    @Apollinarius: The iMac has a HDTV quality LED-backlit LCD screen using S-IPS technology which allows for better color rendition and 179 degree viewing angles. It kicks all other monitors asses.

    Guess I don't have that problem since I am on a Mac Pro with 2 drive bays.

    As others have mentioned, with an iMac, or note book you could buy an external drive, and it would still end up being cheaper.

    actually, most ports are bidirectional, until society shames them into preconceived notions of what a port should and should not do. In some cases, that means only outputting, and only to one device for their entire life!

    2 2006 units still plugging away and no rings, ever. Just bought 2 new ones this year because of the price deals and the whole family of 360's are all fine. I understand people have had problems, don't know of anyone having problems with new units but a side note, owned a PS3 for 5 months and had to have it replaced twice, once with a dead Blu-ray drive and once with some weird flashing yellow light so go figure.
