Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo (2.4 GHz), 2.4 GHz, EPA Energy Star, 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM, 250 GB Standard, Apple MacOS X 10.5, Personal computer
The Good:
Industry-leading design; best all-in-one overall for its price; strong digital media performance; broad range of connectivity options; easy-to-use operating system.
The Bad:
Smaller screen than some newer all-in-ones; puny hard drive for its price; disproportionately expensive memory upgrades; lame 90-day phone support.
The Bottom Line:
Apple's smaller-scale iMac remains our favorite all-in-one. And while its looks, its ease of use, and its performance are all selling points, Windows PCs are starting to catch up (at least with the latter). A few components could also stand an update, but in general you'll find the 20-inch iMac a remarkable computer for its price.
