If you are looking for a 17" iMac...

Newegg has some refurbished ones. They are today's "shell shocker" deal @ $109.

Details are sparse as they just reuse the original copy, "the fastest iMac ever". No idea what speed the processor is. If it could be upgraded to 2 GB, I'd consider getting on to run at least Lion.

Strange... here's the product link:

But the strange part is that it says that the graphics card is the Geforce 7300GT - to my knowledge (and a search of everymac.com specs), no 17" iMac came with that card; that's the card from the 24" of that era, right?

My guess is that it'll be a 1.83GHz C2D and integrated graphics - off-lease education models.

Still, a great price for a pretty capable machine.

Damn. A bit of a dinosaur by today's standards but still not a bad deal. Looking to get my folks into using OSX and this might be the perfect practice machine. They're always against it "because it's so expensive" so I might have to send this their way. At least it'll get 'em used to the OS and less scared to move away from dreaded Windows. Ugh.

I have one of these 1.83 17" iMacs, and running SL and loving it, the thing si fast, responsive, and for general usage, (eb, text, music, etc) is more than capable....
