If you want a new 27-inch iMac for Christmas, you’re going to have to settle for next year. Shipping times for the largest-ever iMac have now slipped to two weeks or more. Many are speculating that this is due to the numerous reports of screen problems with the larger iMacs. But Apple simply states that it is due to the popularity of the model.
The reports are of cracked screens or screen flickering. It is apparently in a small minority of the 27-inch iMacs. It is unclear whether it might be caused by a manufacturing defect or damages during shipping.
Apple tweaked the design of the App Store inside the iTunes Music Store this week to re-arrange information on the app pages. Now when you view information about an app, you can see screen shots in a horizontal scrolling area and much of the specifics of each app are in a sidebar to the left.

      I got the 21.5″ for Christmas. Even though I have a very Slight “Yellow Tinge” issue on left bottom of screen, I think this is the best computer I’ve ever used. Just simply incredible.
