On November 30, Apple started taking pre-orders for the iMac with a 27-inch screen, and last night it started to announce customers that their products are ready to be delivered. This status implies that the order can no longer be canceled and that the product is waiting to be picked up by the courier to be delivered. The delivery dates are between December 21 and December 31, and for now only the orders placed in the USA seem to display this status.
In Romania, the iMac with a 27-inch screen is available for pre-order at Apple resellers, but orders are delivered in January at the earliest, so you won't have such a product at home on Christmas Day.
