RE: I wonder...

>> Meanwhile, it's not obvious to me what "wow" factor would be enhanced simply by cramming a Blu-Ray drive into an iMac: Is 1080p going to look so much better on a 20-24" screen that people will pay an extra $500? <<

The wow factor is that you can fit 50 GB worth of data on a blu-ray disc and you can author HDTV blu-ray home videos shot with a blu-ray camcorder. I agree that you don't reap the benefits of HDTV on a small iMac screen, but it's important to bring PC capabilities up to date for authoring home movies that you can watch on your blu-ray player and big-screen HDTV.
