(7 kg)The iMac “Core 2 Duo” 1.83 17-Inch (IG) is quite a bit different than the other “Core 2 Duo” models, as it most notably uses cheaper and slower Intel GMA 950 “integrated graphics”. The only substantial differences between the education-only iMac “Core Duo” model and this one is that the “Core 2 Duo” model has a “Core 2 Duo” processor and a 160 GB hard drive instead of a 80 GB drive.

  The iMac “Core 2 Duo” 1.83 17-Inch (IG) features a 1.83 GHz Intel “Core 2 Duo” processor (T5600), with two independent processor “cores” on a single silicon chip, a 2 MB shared level 2 cache, a 667 MHz system bus, 512 MB of RAM (667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, PC2-5300), a 160 GB (7200 RPM) Serial ATA hard drive, a vertically-mounted slot-loading DVD-ROM/CD-RW “Combo” drive, an “Intel GMA950 graphics processor with 64 MB of DDR2 SDRAM shared with main memory”, a built-in iSight video camera, and built-in stereo speakers underneath the 17″ TFT Active Matrix LCD (1440×900 native) display designed to “bounce sound off the desk below”.

  Connectivity includes three USB 2.0 ports, two Firewire “400” ports, built-in AirPort Extreme, and Gigabit Ethernet, as well as mini-DVI, which supports an external display in “extended desktop” mode (rather than just “mirrored mode”)
