History

Announced in January 1999, the iMac Rev. C arrived in 5 new appealing colors: Blueberry, Strawberry, Lime, Tangerine, and Grape. Essentially a speed update from the original iMac, the Rev. C lacked both the mysterious "mezzanine" slot and the IRDA port, which lowered its price to $1,199 U.S. In April, Apple replaced the Rev. C with the iMac Rev. D, bringing the processor speed to 333 MHz. All other technical specifications remained identical.

Trivia

• The 1999 iMac Rev. C was available in as many as 5 vibrant colors (Blueberry, Strawberry, Lime, Tangerine, and Grape), reflecting Apple's colorful identity during those years. • The Rev. C eliminated the mysterious "mezzanine" slot and the IRDA port from the original model, allowing Apple to reduce the price to just $1199. • Just three months after the January launch, Apple replaced the Rev. C with the Rev. D, increasing the processor speed to 333 MHz while keeping all other components unchanged.
