My 24" iMac is the last model, Display Port, March 2009. No problems
with daily home use for hours at a time. I second the earlier comment
about looking at lowendmac.com .

I also love the 24" Aluminum intel's, I still use a 2007 2.8 extreme with ML as 
my main machine. No problems whatsoever.

Thanks to everybody for your suggestions!

> Some have pointed out my search terms were too generic.
I know, and I agree they were statistically inaccurate (to say the
least). That's why I thought to ask to you guys! :-)

> Dennis advised to keep with Snow Leopard, and not going to Lion/M. Lion.
I agree. I'm (happily) with Tiger now, I (badly) disliked Lion U.I.,
and I plan to stick to Snow Leopard for the foreseeable future on my
new iMac.
Besides, I currently own mostly PPC software, so I need Rosetta.

I agree.

Since several of you praised their 24" iMacs, and the 21,5" screen is
too vertically-limited for my need (it's vertically shorter than my
21" CRT monitor), I've decided the 24" iMac is the perfect choice to
me.

Any further advice is welcome.
Thanks again,
Valter
