The first in the line of modern now called Macs. The release of this all in one computer was one of the factors that helped Apple stave off financial ruin after the return of Steve Jobs. Although it was criticized for abandoning technological standards it is a huge success.It still used a CRT moniter but was the first PC to offer USB ports. Was a continually updated machine.

Almost looking like its current iteration, the iMac was part of the first lines along with namely the MacBook to adopt intel technology.As opposed to IBM's PowerPC which Jobs decided was inferior causing the switch. This line was significantly faster than it's predecessors and some other PCs.

Some slight modifications from last years Mac. Nothing too drastic besides the move to aluminum bodies to make the Mac itself more resistant and durable. Along with some changes like the addition of more ports and such.
