Description:
When it comes to the sleek Apple iMac models, the 800 MHz SuperDrive is the cream of the crop. Sporting the same space-efficient design as the other members of the iMac family, the 800 MHz SuperDrive nevertheless packs more power and features into its familiar dome-shaped housing than even some Power Macs. If multimedia performance and computing speed are just as important to you as a tiny footprint and clean looks, the latest iMac should warrant very careful consideration. Driven by an 800 MHz PowerPC G4 CPU, 256 KB of on-chip Level 2 cache, and a generous 256 MB of SDRAM (expandable to one full GB), the 800 MHz SuperDrive is ready to handle most any standard computer task. To ensure the machine doesn't bog down even during the most graphically intensive operation, Apple has also included a super-fast nVidia GeForce4 MX graphics processor with 32 MB of DDR video memory. However, the crowning touch on this model won't be found inside its case. Instead, it sits atop the slim adjustable neck that has become an iMac trademark. In lieu of the slick 15-inch, flat-screen LCD panels you'll find on other iMacs, the 800 MHz SuperDrive is capped by a crystal clear 17-inch widescreen display that helps deliver your applications, games, and multimedia like never before. With the 800 MHz SuperDrive, saving, transferring, or sharing files and data is never a problem. The unit is equipped with a massive 80 GB Ultra ATA hard disk for permanent storage and a combination DVD-R/CD-RW drive through which you can back up files, burn and enjoy audio CDs, and record large-volume video and audio DVDs. The system also features two state-of-the-art FireWire ports for high-speed uploads and downloads from external devices such as video camcorders or Apple's own iPod, and no fewer than five USB ports (two of which are conveniently located on the keyboard) for peripherals such as digital cameras and joysticks. For its size, the 800 MHz SuperDrive is very well connected. On the rear panel you'll find welcome perks such as a headphone jack, an external VGA monitor port, a speaker mini-jack for the enclosed pair of Apple Pro loudspeakers, and an Ethernet jack for broadband connections. Low-speed Internet and e-mail access is available through the unit's built-in 56K V.90 modem, and high-speed wireless access may be added with Apple's optional AirPort card. An optical Apple Pro mouse, a 108-key Apple Pro keyboard with 15 programmable multimedia keys, and an integrated two-port USB hub complete the hardware picture. Your 800 MHz SuperDrive will arrive ready to go with pre-installed versions of both Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X.
