You don’t need to be an Apple aficionado to appreciate the cool minimalist looks and speedy computing power of the Apple iMac MB418B/A computer.
You’ll enjoy viewing pictures on the glossy 24” widescreen or enjoying a chat to a distant relative or friend on the discreet built-in webcam. And with Apple’s simple and intuitive OS Leopard operating system, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without an iMac before!
But good design doesn’t supersede performance; you’ll be reassured by the Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66Ghz processor which will makes it fast and easy to do everything from surfing the web, video chatting to making home movies – the latter of which is supported by the built-in slot-loading DVD burner which can handle DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW media. A super fast NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics card with 256MB of memory effortlessly brings the most complex and fast moving games to life.
6 USB ports, 2 of them handily located on the keyboard - plus a FireWire port - ensure enough connectivity for any external devices you may wish to attach including compatible digital camcorders, cameras and portable music devices.
The iMac also arrives with iLife’ 09, a suite of easy-to-use applications. Enhance, organise and share your photos via iPhoto. Edit your home movies with drag-and-drop simplicity in iMovie. Turn your photo and movie creations into professional DVDs with iDVD. Create original music in GarageBand. Make podcasts and blogs. Then publish them online via .Mac and iWeb.
