There is no disc. There may be thumbdrive.

There is a recovery partition in every new Mac purchased since Lion/Mountain Lion.

If you are worried or prefer to be cautious, it is highly recommended to create your own bootable OSX installation media.

To know more, read Ars Technica OR Macworld

you should be able to transfer "purchases" to your iTunes account.

these should be added:

GarageBand
iMovie
iPhoto
OS X Mountain Lion

Want to get an iMAC with upgraded Graphic Card+Processor.

Intending to get a ext SSD instead of a FUSION Drive to boot up. Anyone tried that?

if have image retention then how?
called up apple liao, v limited informatoin i have even after calling dhl.

[Laneige]

Mine took about 20 hours from preparing to ship to shipped. You will then receive a tracking number (should be DHL) showing they have picked up the package in Shanghai factory.

3 Departed Facility in SHANGHAI - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC SHANGHAI - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC 17:50

2 Processed at SHANGHAI - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC SHANGHAI - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC 16:36

1 Shipment information received SHANGHAI - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC 11:43

oh ok. i see if i will get the tracking number after that, hopefully.
so that means u will not be able to see 1-3 prior to this in yr track order?

You can ask for a change if you are not satisfied. However the displays are all made by LG for this iMac so the chances of getting another defective unit is quite high.

I am running the 680MX and I don't have image retention. Seriously image retention is because of screen, not the GPU.
