17-inch G5 iMac MIA
by , 12:05 PM EST, February 3rd, 2006
You can still buy a 20-inch G5 iMac from Apple's online store, but the 17-inch model is no longer available. Some time this week, the 17-inch model quietly disappeared, leaving behind it's larger brother. Shipping time for the 20-inch iMac still shows as 24 hours, and the price remains at the recently reduced US$1,499. The lack of the 17-inch G5 model indicates that Apple has depleted it's remaining inventory, and the 20-inch model is likely to follow suit soon.
