I'm sure you are going to just love the new system responsiveness and that great screen, Stan.
But I have one comment on your SSD choice: I think you made the wrong decision there ... On Mon, Dec 23, 2013 at 1:55 PM, Stan Halpin <[email protected]> wrote: > So I ordered the iMac.

By not booting from and running the OS from an internal SSD you are missing out on one of the most important performance boosts you would have otherwise received. The only reason I'm still using my 2007-era iMac is because I swapped the internal HDD for an SSD device. I have only the OS and my home folder (including Lightroom catalogue) on it; all my other data is external on Firewire and USB drives. The difference between a main drive being HDD vs SSD is simply put: _astounding_. None of the other system aspects represent a big enough bottleneck to me to worry about an upgrade. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
