Apple iMac 24-inch (2009)

Apple made a number of changes to the 24-inch iMac, but making it available at this price is the most impressive. The rest of the updates are welcome, and Apple's multitasking capability remains unmatched.

Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro 2.53GHz

    Apple's 15-inch MacBook Pro received a design overhaul and now includes the unibody chassis built from a single piece of aluminium, a multi-touch glass trackpad, a new black screen bezel, and black keys.

  • Dell 2408WFP

    While the 2408wfp is more evolution than revolution, when all this goes for under AU$1,000 it's hard to pass up, especially if you're looking for something in the size range.

  • Dell 3008WFP

    With a crazy number of inputs, 1080p over component and good rendering of 1080i, this screen has set itself up as a potential TV replacement, let alone a huge monitor. This one's the new king.

  • Apple iMac Core 2 Duo (24-inch, 2.16GHz)

    Other vendors might offer more flexible configurations and better deals on components, and the specter of HD video looms darkly, but the 24-inch iMac's sprawling display and convincingly capable features should set most people's minds at ease.

  • Dell UltraSharp 3007WFP

    The Dell 3007WFP is a gargantuan 30-inch LCD display that offers copious screen real estate, but it's just not practical for desktop PC use. The lack of video ports is also a deal breaker.

  • Apple Power Mac G5 dual 2.7GHz

    Apple's latest high-end Power Mac G5 is a blazing machine that stands up without blinking to the best of the competition, but we're still annoyed by some of its shortcomings.

  • Apple Cinema HD Display (23-inch)

    The Apple 23-inch Cinema Display is low on extras and high on price. Still, one look at this gorgeous LCD, and you'll kiss your practicality good-bye.
