Apple iMac (24-inch, 2.8GHz) Images  Editors' choice

By Matthew Elliot on 02/05/2008

More Apple reviews , RRP: AU$2399.00

The good:

  • A minor specification update results in some significant performance gains
  • Graphics upgrade an option on this 24-inch model
  • Sleek, polished design didn't receive an update, but we won't start clamoring for a new design until the current one is at least 12 months old

The bad:

  • Free phone support runs out after 90 days

The bottomline:

A slight bump to the specifications for the same price, in addition to a much appreciated option to upgrade the graphics means the 24-inch iMac keeps the Editors' Choice it earned last year when the brushed-aluminium-and-glass design was first introduced.
