Manufacturer’s Description

Power has never been this much fun. No computer on earth makes it as easy to work with digital photos, movies, music and the web as iMac. And now it all happens with blazing speed powered by Intel Core Duo. With two processors built onto a single chip, this Intel engine kicks iMac performance up to a whole different level. Coupled with the ATI Radeon X1600 graphics processor and the Mac OS X, iMac will run all your software, fast. There?s an iSight camera built into every iMac, so you can start a video chat (or join one) at a moment?s notice. There is nothing extra to buy, nothing to attach, no cords to fumble with, no software to install or configure.
