iMac 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo 17"
Home to luscious widescreen living, the 17- or 20-inch iMac display hides the whole computer. Now iMac lets you widen your horizons with a second display on a pure digital DVI connection in extended desktop mode. And power them up with over-the-top ATI Radeon X1600 graphics with up to 256MB DDR SDRAM.
You get the picture
ATI Radeon X1600 Graphics gives iMac the PCI Express treatment on a 16-lane bus interface. That means it’s screaming fast. Up to 256MB GDDR3 graphics memory offers plenty of headroom for games, Dashboard widgets, games, even faster user switching, games, iPhoto full-screen mode, games, Front Row, games, and, well, games.
Get cinematic perspective
The 17-inch widescreen iMac delivers a resolution of 1440 by 900 pixels on its flat-panel LCD screen, the same screen area as a 19-inch CRT monitor. The 20-inch widescreen iMac, with its 1680 by 1050 resolution, provides even more real estate — 36% more onscreen viewable area, to be exact, than the 17-inch iMac. Its 16:10 wide aspect ratio is perfect for watching DVD movies — using the built-in DVD Player — in their original format.
Extended desktop
Designed to live in any room of the house, iMac now offers features that make it every bit at home in the office. For the first time ever, iMac lets you use a second display in extended desktop mode, in addition to simply mirroring the first. The mini-DVI port lets you connect to DVI displays, VGA monitors and projectors, and S-Video and Composite connectors, with the appropriate adapter (sold separately). iMac graphics supports up to 23-inch Apple Cinema Display.
