History

The iMac (Mid 2007) represented, from a technical standpoint, a simple performance increment compared to the iMac (Late 2006), however it incorporated a complete structural redesign. Announced in August 2007, the iMac (Mid 2007) featured an innovative aluminum chassis design that was a clear reference to the recently released iPhone. The iMac (Mid 2007) also included a new extremely thin aluminum keyboard. The iMac (Mid 2007) was available in three configurations: 20"/2.0 GHz/1 GB RAM/250 GB HD/128 MB VRAM/SuperDrive/$1199 USD, 20"/2.4 GHz/1 GB RAM/320 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/SuperDrive/$1499 USD and 24"/2.4 GHz/1 GB RAM/320 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/SuperDrive/$1799 USD. A high-end BTO model was also available, equipped with an Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme processor at 2.8 GHz and a 500 GB hard drive, at the price of $2299 USD.

Trivia

• The iMac Mid 2007 was the first Apple computer to visually echo the newly launched iPhone, with an aluminum enclosure that established a new unified design language across the company's products. • Along with the new design, Apple introduced an extremely thin aluminum keyboard, an element that reflected the company's obsession with reducing thickness and minimalist elegance. • Despite being primarily a speed update compared to the previous model, the Mid 2007 was marketed in three different configurations (20" and 24") with prices ranging from $1,199 to $2,299, demonstrating Apple's willingness to offer options for different user segments.
