What are the actual dimensions of the new 2008 IMAC—length, width, depth.
Thank you.

How about that new keyboard though? Don’t try to tell me that the old keyboard is the same height as the new one.

Good point Bert, I guess that’s what they mean by “thinner”.

I’m still not sure whether pushing everything into a bulge at the back constitutes being thinner. It reminds me of the Toshiba laptops that have a very thin front edge so they look slim – and then push the fat parts to the rear.

Still, it’s a step forward for the iMac in any case.

This is obviously the depth calculated from the front most part of the screen to the end of the foot.

The “thin” factor Steve is pointing out is the screen itself, not the depth of the entire device.
