3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 3 MB shared L2 cache
1 TB Serial ATA hard drive (7200 RPM)
4 GB installed RAM (1066 MHz DDR3
ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics processor (with 256 MB of GDDR3 memory)
I figured it was time to upgrade, my current imac has served me well for 4 years. Looking forward to that hard drive space.
Guys since I'll be doing a fresh windows install on it in boot camp, what do you recommend, stick with XP or Windows 7? I really only use windows for rfactor and maybe ripping dvds once in a while.
Cant say, im using XP on my mac and works fine for me, but i only use it for Rfactor and 2-3 other simple application. Ask those who are using window7, they may comment about it, i think there is a thread in the forum about using the new window7.
You may want to use more option with that magic mouse, you can use up to 4 fingher touch option instead of the few basic option. Its a menu tab application. Have fun.

I can't help much on this as I'm still gaming on XP (at home). I have Win7 at work and it's good but even after roughly 6 months of daily usage, I still think that some of the GUI changes have not been for the better (but I gotta admit to not being one who's easily impressed by flashy GUIs so YMMV). But overall, it works very well for office work and playing good old UT99 at lunchtime!
I really want to give 7 a try but from what I've read apple hasn't released drivers for it yet, which means the fans won't go fast enough to keep it cool, in gaming anyway.
