Gosh,that's nearly 10 years ago :), and yes I did use it for a good while, especially if I had to cart any 'big' lenses around. But I managed to fall out of a tree around 5 years ago, and managed to smash my pelvis, while they put me back together again, it did mean a cut down on the amount of...

One at 600mm, hand held 1/200 sec @ f6.3, ISO400....so the IS (OS) must be doing it's work OK.

I can't comment on SSD-V-Fusion drive as I've never used a Hybrid drive, and yes, no issues with the extra memory, a 5 minute job to fit them in the spare slots.

Mine arrived today, 27inch, i7 4Ghz, 256SSD, 2GB GPU, 24GB Ram (added an extra 16GB Crucial Ram) Similar to Shane , the screen is absolutely stunning, and the read/write speeds with the SSD are amazing, I'm getting over double the read/write speeds than I was getting on a 256GB Samsung EVO 850...
