Posting from my shiny new iMac – finally.
Still have to figure how to get all the files from my old MBP to this thing. Migration Assistant doesn't detect it over ethernet and doesn't seem to actually transfer anything over Bluetooth. (And why do torrents download so much slower?) Much tinkering to do this weekend...

I've heard about Adobe Premier and After Effects CS6 not being able to take full advantage of the new iMac graphics card GPU. You can manually add the graphics card used in the new iMacs to Adobe's list of supported cards (I assume this would need to be done with each upgrade) for better rendering, exporting etc...

Any one have experience with this?

It occurs to me I should turn the track pad off when not using it, but I'll be setting up my wacom soon enough and probably end up using that more anyway.
