I've been trying to find out whether the new 20 and 24 inch iMacs released this week have CCFL (cold fluorescent) or LED backlight displays. I think the low-end 20 inch may be CCFL, but I'm not sure. Does anybody have any info regarding this?

I believe they're all CCFL

None of the iMacs have LED displays.

The LCD in this iMac is not LED backlit, but uses the more traditional CCFL backlight.

EDIT: That is for the new 20" but I believe the 24"s are the same

I saw that, so I knew at least the 20 inch low-end have CCFL LCD's, but I wasn't sure if the 24 inch iMacs are now the same as the 24 inch display that is LED. It seems they aren't.
