Put the breaks on that purchase, IMHO.
Wait for the Core 2 Duo equipped update. Will be the same money or less for what is so much faster. The iMacs got updated to the Core 2 Duo a month ago, It's got to be pretty darn soon (surprised not already done as Dell and laptop makers done). the price went down, the speeds went up and the performance with the Core 2 went way up.
Core 2 Duo is a 64 bit processor vs. Core Duo only 32 bit.
My 2c
