As most of you probably know I ordered a new iMac late last year, but when I finally received it in early January it was suffering from the dreaded yellow screen tint. After a simple phone call to Apple Customer Care they agreed to send me an advanced replacement. This replacement was due to arrive on the 28th of January. I got a phone call from Apple on the morning of the 28th telling me there was delay in shipment, and my new machine wouldn’t be here till February the 19th! Anyway, to my surprise I received an email on the 29th stating my iMac had shipped and that I’d receive it today.

Thankfully the new machine (on the left) doesn’t suffer from the yellow tint, the hard drive in it also seems a lot quieter. I thought I’d have a bit of fun and see what it’d be like if I were running these two in a dual screen kind of setup, have to say I was starting to get used to it until I finally gave in and started the Migration Assistant! It’s currently got just under two hours to go and I’ll have to start clearing the old one and packing it up. Never nice to wave goodbye to any Mac equipment, even if it is faulty.
