24-inch iMac unpacking pr0n
It should come as no surprise that once a new product like the 24-inch iMac is introduced, the unpacking pr0n soon follows. These pictures hail from a .Mac user we know only as 'bigeyed' - yea, that's right: not a Flickr album. While there are obviously more attractive images in the set, I chose the one accompanying this post because of its sheer width; I can't think of another time we have seen an Apple keyboard swimming in so much styrofoam.
While there isn't anything much else mind-blowing, check out bigeyed's gallery if you can't get your eyes on enough 24-inch iMac paraphernalia, and congrats to all the lucky new owners out there.
[Update: here is a duggmirror link to the thumbnail pictures; unfortunately they don't have a way of mirroring the larger ones.]
Thanks Glenn

Nice, but without any points of reference you can't tell just how big it really is. Put a keyboard in front of that bad boy.

This isn't actually my setup or unpacking pictures, I just sent the news tip to TUAW.
My rig is listed here on the about page: http://www.glennwolsey.com

Guess I couldn't hope to be among the first, with my custom-order. Still, this is a good sign!

A glowing endorsement for paying for .Mac service...BANDWIDTH EXCEEDED!
HAHA, I'd expect no less from that pile of junk Apple calls a "service". One of the few things I actually hate about Apple.

Wow.
.Mac is a complete pile of crap. Is bandwith restriction even possible on a FREE Flickr account? How embarrassing.

Yes, Free Flickr accounts are limited to a 20Mb bandwith...
Regarding the 24-inch unpacking: boy, what a messy set up...

If they would just start putting cable card ports in these, they could start replacing every TV.

#16: The wired version is still standard. If you want either the wireless keyboard or mouse, you can special order them and they come in the box.
