Yes, there really is a computer in there. The iMac stands as a model of great design, suspended gracefully in mid-air, perfectly balanced. With hardly any desktop footprint, iMac conceals almost an entirely new interior as well as an extraordinary range of features to enhance your digital life. That’s no easy feat.
One giant leap for iMac
Just when you thought iMac had everything, now there?s even more. With the latest Intel Core 2 Duo processors, up to 2GB of 800MHz DDR2 memory standard, and Mac OS X Leopard and iLife ?08, it?s the ultimate all-in-one. For the most powerful graphics ever in an iMac, there?s a new configuration option: the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS with 512MB of dedicated video memory. iMac packs amazing performance into a stunningly slim space. The 20-inch model starts at just $1199, the 24-inch model at just $1799. |
Software just works
In the world of iMac, nothing is complicated — even when the internal
architecture advances so dramatically. So when it comes to running software
on your Intel-based iMac, prepare for the expected: it just works. Applications
with the Universal symbol run on either PowerPC- or Intel-based iMac computers.
Most existing applications will run on your Intel-based iMac, too. Simply
launch them as always. Thanks to the Rosetta technology in Mac OS X, they
look and feel just like they did before.
A place for everything
The iSight camera is built right into iMac’s display, ready to spring into action when you want to snap a picture or video chat with friends around around the world. The simple six-button Apple Remote gives you control over your music, movies and photos from anywhere in the room — and it stows away neatly (and magnetically) on the side of your iMac when you're not using it. An array of rear ports make it easy to connect your iPod or just about any other digital device. Though it’s hard to believe, iMac’s slim shape contains everything from the power supply (no unsightly power brick to deal with) to a pair of high-quality speakers for beautiful stereo sound. The battle over desktop clutter is over — and you won.
Power in hand
Now that Mighty
Mouse is standard with every model, you’ll feel iMac power right down
to your fingertips. You get the programmability of a four-button mouse
in an unexpectedly simple design — along with the power of the revolutionary
Scroll Ball. Scroll up, scroll down, even scroll diagonally within
a document without lifting a finger. See all your open windows with a single
squeeze. Or assign other functions to buttons as you wish. Your fingertips
never had it so good.
