As suspected by the rumor websites, Apple’s latest update comes to us on a surprisingly early Monday. The all-in-one desktop success has just been upgraded with brand new Intel Core 2 Duo “Penryn” processors and new video cards. The new processors range from 2.4GHz to 3.06GHz. Unfortunately, for 4 or 8 cores, you’ll still need a Mac Pro - as these are still dual core processors.
Similarly to the recent MacBook Pro update, this update brings no new design - it is simply a regular update to keep the iMac’s up to speed with the competition. The new iMacs are available to purchase immediately from Apple retail stores, and the Apple Store online. Authorized Apple resellers should also be receiving stock of the new iMacs, if they haven’t already.
The new models are as follows:
20-inch, 2.4GHz, 1GB RAM, 250GB Hard Drive, ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT 128MB. $1199
20-inch, 2.6GHz, 2GB RAM, 320GB Hard Drive, ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO 256MB, $1499
24-inch, 2.8GHz, 2GB RAM, 320GB Hard Drive, ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO 256MB, $1799
24-inch, 3.06GHz, 2GB RAM, 500GB Hard Drive, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS 512MB, $2199
