This new entry-level iMac outperforms its predecessor. Still, while an attractive model for its price, spending the extra $300 for a 24-inch model gets you more RAM, twice the storage capacity, and better performance.
Pros: Compact, all-in-one design; good speed boost over previous analogous model.
Cons: Glossy screen may frustrate some users; FireWire 400 peripherals require an adapter; still uses 6-bit dithered display.
