What are your specs.

That is actually the 1st gen you are thinking of. I did some searches online before ordering, and here is what I found:
From the Apple Refurbished Store, they are selling the 1st gen with the 1.6 GHz with 80 GB HDD for $999, and the 1.8 GHz with 64 GB SSD for $1299. But those are refurbished.
MacMall.com has
brand new 1.6 GHz with 80 GB HDD for $1149, and the 1.8 GHz with 64 GB SSD for $1399.
I ended up getting the 1.6 GHz with 80 GB HDD for $1099 from Small Dog Electronics (smalldog.com). This is a brand new computer on clearance. I also had them throw in iWork '09 for $49 ($79 - $30 rebate), and apparently I can order the iLife '09 upgrade from Apple for only $10.
I did debate spending $1399 to get the SSD version, but decided to save the $300. I'm coming from a 4 year old Dell Insperon 6000, so I'm sure this will be plenty fast for me.
