07 Sep, 2006, 2:00 pm IST | Sharon Khare |

Apple has announced that its entire iMac line now features the new Intel Core 2 Duo processor in every model, delivering up to 50 percent faster performance than the previous iMac.

A new 24-inch iMac with a widescreen display joins the 17- and 20-inch models, and iMac prices now start at $999.

Every new iMac includes a built-in iSight video camera for video conferencing out-of-the-box; Apple's Front Row media experience; and iLife ‘06, the next generation of Apple’s suite of digital lifestyle applications. Providing high-performance connectivity options, the iMac includes built-in 10/100/1000 BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet for high-speed networking, built-in AirPort Extreme, a total of five USB ports (three USB 2.0) and two FireWire ports (including one FireWire 800 port on the 24-inch model). The iMac also comes with the latest release of Mac OS X version 10.4.7 "Tiger" including Safari, Mail, iCal, iChat AV, Front Row and Photo Booth, running natively on the Intel-based desktop.
