The iMac continues to be a desktop Mac that's powerful enough to please both general consumers and professionals. The 24-inch models are an attractive buy, as they offer more memory and storage capacity as well as better performance than the lone 20-inch iMac. And this model's discreet graphics help it perform graphically-intensive tasks.
Pros: Compact, all-in-one design; big, beautiful screen; good video frame-rate performance.
Cons: Glossy screen may frustrate some users; FireWire 400 peripherals require an adapter.
