The mouse is certainly a widely used model, and has its fans, but it's never been one of my favorites, perhaps because my reflexes are so tied into the physical click of separate left and right mouse buttons and a physical scroll wheel. The keyboard is still top-notch - compact, but with large, deep keys, and a logical layout. The standard Apple wireless keyboard and Magic Mouse have been static for a few generations of hardware now. The built-in Wi-Fi eliminates the need for an Ethernet cable, and the included keyboard and mouse are wireless and arrive ready to use. For most users, you'll simply need to connect a white power cable and that's it.

As with most all-in-one PCs, and nearly every Apple computer (except the Mac Pro), there's no easy user access to components - except for the RAM, this is essentially a sealed system, unless you're willing to do some warranty-voiding surgery.Īpple's single-cable strategy is evident here. The iMac still has last year's less-reflective screen, hidden memory slots, and rear-panel-only ports. We didn't notice any changes to the system exterior for this 2013 update. The design is a year old now, so it doesn't grab the eye as it once did, but it's still a great example of what happens when aesthetic considerations come first, not as an afterthought. That desktop subgenre is most closely associated with family computer use, kitchen PCs, or creative/artistic work, in a way that a no-nonsense tower chassis or an on-the-go laptop is not. The bowl-like panel and curved one-piece stand make this among the most organic-feeling of Apple's products, which is fitting for an all-in-one. (Note, for example, the thick slablike design of the Dell XPS 27, probably this system's closest competitor.) So, no, it's not as paper-thin as one might think at first glance, but there's still a notable lack of bulk for a high-powered 27-inch all-in-one.


The artful photography and clever angles made the system look completely flat, although once you got to see it in person, you could see that the rear panel curves out in the center. The current iMac design blew a lot of minds when first unveiled by Apple in October 2012.
