I'm running a late 2009 Mini with 10.6.8 and want to get a new computer so I can upgrade to Mavericks, needs more memory than I currently have, and also because my mini is coming up on it's 5th birthday.

I'm torn between waiting for a new Mini to come out, if ever, and jumping on the blowout at MacMall for the 27" iMac, MD096LL/A, for $1350. One of the reasons I've had Mini's is for separate monitor and computer. Always been afraid to have them together if one or the other cratered. On the other hand the 27" iMac is a hell of a deal.

Comments appreciated and thank you.
