Mother's Day Gift Guide: iMac

by Evan Shamoon on May 9, 2008 at 08:32 AM



There's no prettier or easier-to-use computer on Earth than the iMac, and Apple just launched the newest iteration, so it's the perfect time to buy one of these for a mom who's been asking about a new computer for monhts. The models range in size from 20 to 24 inches, and start at a decidedly affordable (though admittedly still high for Mother's Day) $1,200.They all include the speedy Intel Core 2 Duo processor, a minimum of 1-gigabyte (GB) of RAM and 250GB hard drive, an 8x SuperDrive for burning DVD's and CD's, a built-in iSight video camera, and AirPort Extreme 802.11n wireless capability and Bluetooth 2.1. functionality. Oh, and a Mighty Mouse and Apple keyboard, obviously. Essentially, everything mom needs to get going ... or, rather, sitting.
