That's something we missed out too. I'm still quite confused with the Core i5s. I just went to check the specs of the i5 used on this iMac, and it does appear that HT is disabled... That’s true.

Core i7 series is a cool upgrade choice for the iMac i guess since most people who buys an iMac uses it to do video editting. HT just saves alot of time. If i am not wrong core i5 has HT disabled.

I was quite excited about it myself! If I had my own home, I'd get one and use it to host my own services myself! Plus Mac OS X Server has great podcast production tools built in. For a 1TB server with a full fledged server OS that does everything a $2000 windows server OS license does, at the cost of just ~$1500, it's really amazing.

The Mac Mini Server thing is huge. You get very useful server services like file server, web server, LDAP, Wiki, blogs, email, calendars etc with _unlimited_ users on a small and cute machines. At $1500+, this is a great deal. The equivalent Windows Server machine will cost easily $2000-$5000 just for the OS alone. And it works well with your iPhone.http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/10/24/inside_apples_new_mac_mini_server.htmlI was going to get a new MacBook, but the new MacBook looks horribly fragile. http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/22/unibody-macbook-late-2009-review/. If it is going to scratch and dent so easily, there is no way I am going to buy it. I think you guys overlook the potential of the Mac Mini Server. The Mac Mini Server thing is huge.
