Apple's senior vice-president of worldwide marketing, Phil Schiller, took a cue from his boss, CEO Steve Jobs, as he unveiled one more thing at the end of his keynote to kick off this week's Apple Expo in Paris: a iMac G5 that includes the entire system inside a 17- or 20-inch LCD screen. Continuing the all-in-one theme that started with the original CRT iMac, the G5 edition features a new industrial design that complements Apple's recently refreshed Cinema Displays. Schiller said that the new iMacs will be available in mid-September.

Schiller said that the new iMacs will be available in mid-September.

As expected, the iMac G5 is a computer built into a flat-panel display, starting at $1299 for a 17-inch model.

Apple iMac G5 08/31/2004 06:03 AM

And it lives! Apple has fully unveiled the new iMac G5, and it's basically a Pizza box PC that looks a lot like the new Cinema displays, except white. Available in 17- and 20-inch form, the machines will come with 1.6 and 1.8GHz G5 processors, respectively. I'll go ahead and throw up this post with pictures, then actually wake up and jump up with more details.

Read - Product Page [Apple]

Update: One sort of geeky thing that immediately is noticable is that the iMac G5 doesn't share the "50% of the processor speed" bus as the PowerMac G5s. That's going to be a real performance wrinkler (although still a welcome bump from the G4).

Engadget: Switched On: Apple, RIAA Should Sue Each Other’s Fans. "Apple, meanwhile, must struggle against teenagers who must violate the Geneva Convention in order to extract information about mind-blowing new products such as pastel socks. ... With the average RIAA lawsuit settling for around 5,000 critical Slashdot posts, the numbers quickly add up; Apple and the RIAA can make more money suing customers than selling them songs. ... Astonishing as it may seem given that few companies besides Apple have the raw engineering acumen to remove the LCD screen from an MP3 player..." Be sure to read the rest; it's hilarious.

At the Apple Expo in Paris today, Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing, put the rumors to rest by unveiling the new iMac G5 in his keynote address.

The iMac G5 packs a complete computer system into a mere two inches of depth, making it the world's thinnest desktop computer. The new line offers 17- or 20-inch active matrix widescreen LCDs and G5 processors running up to 1.8 GHz starting at just $1,299.

Why Apple Needs To Shine Up iMac

Why Apple Needs To Shine Up iMac 07/13/2004 05:16 AM
While more students are opting for laptops, Apple needs a strong iMac to prevent further share gains by now-dominant Dell. By Peter Burrows, BusinessWeek (via MyAppleMenu)

Apple launch iMac G5

Apple launch iMac G5 08/31/2004 06:10 AM
Apple have just sent word that the latest in the iMac line, the G5, is being launched today. The new line, based around the G5 chip, is essentially a computer packed into a 2" thick LCD screen, which apple claims to be the 'worlds thinnest desktop computer'. The iMacs feature 17" to 20" Widescreen LCD with G5s going up to 1.8 GHz.

Apple are making many comparisons between the new iMac, and their hugely successful iPod. Philip Schiller, Apple PR man, commented that "Just like the iPod redefined portable digital music players, the new iMac G5 redefines what users expect from a consumer desktop", also remarking "With the entire system, including a gorgeous 17- or 20-inch display, just two inches thin, a lot of people will be wondering ‘where did the computer go?’" One hopes that they'll be not asking this in a too critical light when the machine crashes.

Apple claims the iMac will run very quietly (~25db), making it suitable for all locations in the home. Its I/O ports are neatly designed on the computer; it features 5 USB ports and 3 Firewire ports. Interestingly, Apple offers "internal support" for Airport Extreme cards, yet does not ship with them as standard - the same is true for its support on Bluetooth - you need to buy the extra card, but it integrates with the iMac G5. It also has built in Ethernet ports (10/100). The system packs a SuperDrive (DVD/CD writer combo), up to 2 gig of DDR 400mhz RAM and up to 250 gig of hard drive space (SATA). The new iMac also has an AGP 8X nVidia based (GeForce FX 5200 Ultra) graphics solution.

Prices range from £919 (low end, 17" / 1.6 GHz) to £1349 (high end, 20" / 1.8 GHz). All in all, not too bad. Apple would like a successful line of computers that they can ship, be proud of (i.e. enjoy critical acclaim) and make lots of money on. They've been plagued by supply problems on some of their other product lines, and Apple would be well advised to resolve these problems sooner, rather than later.
