New iMacs go on Sale in Ireland and UK

Half of the redesigned iMac range went on sale today, just making Apple’s declared launch date of “November”. The two new 21.5” models cost €1399 and €1599, and can be customised with double RAM (€200 extra) or a change in processor (€200 extra).

The 27” models, which can be ordered, are due to begin to ship in December, which means there is a doubt as to whether they will ship in time for Christmas. This seems unlikely at this stage, but for us, they are still the best desktop Mac and would be worth the wait! The current wait time on the Apple Store is 3-4 weeks. They cost €1949 and €2129.

The new iMacs are far thinner than the previous generations and come with a brand new Fusion Drive that combines flash storage and the more traditional disk-based hard drive. This gives a combination of better speeds and big storage capacity.
