After seeing the iMac Kitchen Project thread, i realised my kitchen would be perfect for this installation too - but then i read that you cannot mount the iSight iMacs, aside from the 24".
However, after doing a bit of digging, i found that it is just about possible to use the G5 VESA Adaptor, providing you are willing to open up your iMac and remove the stand yourself. And, although the bracket does not fit perfectly, apparently it is stable enough.

Now, i'm not overly keen on taking my iMac apart, let alone mounting it two foot above a worktop on a bracket that's just about stable, but i want to achieve a wall-mounted result somehow.
So does anyone know if the 24" iMac is wall-bracketed using the G5 Adaptor, or does it have it's own? If so, would that fit my iMac too? If it did, then at least i'd only have to worry about getting the stand off, safe in the knowledge that once it's on the wall, it won't be going anywhere.
