Reviewed on July 27, 2010Apple has elected to keep its iMac firmly grounded as a productivity device. You'll find few home entertainment conveniences in Apple's new iMac, and you can find larger screens in other all-in-ones for less. Few will offer performance like this iMac, though, and none looks as pretty, which makes it easy to recommend for general-purpose computing and for the design conscious.TAGS:Apple iMac, Apple Computer, graphics chip, HyperThreading, SD card, Intel Core 2 Duo, CPU, component, Apple Macintosh, games, Intel, PC, Microsoft Windows
Reviewed on October 21, 2009Apple's new 27-inch iMac will charm plenty of you with its screen size alone. Fortunately, that won't lead you astray. Behind its expansive display, Apple has packed one of the fastest all-in-ones available, and added a few useful extras to sweeten the deal. This iMac isn't perfect, but its positives far outweigh its negatives. We can think of few users to whom we wouldn't recommend this system.TAGS:Apple iMac, Apple Computer, Apple MacBook, display, Apple MacBook Pro, Intel Core 2 Duo, light-emitting diode, SD card, laptop computer
