Apple Offers Refurbished iMacs Starting at $999! - There's a limited time on these special prices, so hurry up!

In typical Apple fashion, the company's online store is offering refurbished Macs all of the sudden, as part of a Limited Time Special Price offer. iMac (current generation) prices range between $999 and $1,899 depending
on processor speed, hard drive capacity and RAM, so for those of you who haven't had the chance to get a decent system at an affordable price, now is the time to check out Apple store.

This of course has nothing to do with the cheapening of NAND flash memory this year, as neither of the refurbished iMacs sports a solid state drive. That doesn't mean that Macs can't get cheaper anyway.

So, here's a bunch of systems one might look into for a decent experience as well as price:

Refurbished iMac 20-inch 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (current generation): sports a 20-inch glossy widescreen display, 1GB memory, 250GB hard drive, 8x SuperDrive (DVD±RDL/DVD±RW/CD-RW), ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT with 128MB memory and of course a Built-in iSight Camera.

Its original price was $1,199.00 and it now goes for $999.00. Order now and you're likely to get it sooner than 5 business days. Shipping is free.

Refurbished iMac 20-inch 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (current generation): features the same widescreen 20-incher, 1 gig of RAM, 320GB hard drive, 8x SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW) just as the first system, with ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB memory and Built-in iSight Camera.

The system was originally priced at $1,499.00. Now, Apple is offering it for $1,249.00 and will ship it to your house within 24 hours. No shipping fees with this one either.

Refurbished iMac 24-inch 2.8GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme (current generation): this one has you scrolling with your eyes across 24 inches of glossy pixels, uses 2GB of RAM, can store 500GB of whatever, reads/writes discs with an 8x SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW), offers ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO (256MB memory) video quality and stares at you via the ever-present Built-in iSight Camera.

Original price was $2,299.00; refurbished pice is $1,899.00. It ships within 24 hours also, no shipping fees.

Apple is also rumored to drop prices on its iPhone and iPod lineup by as much as 50 percent this year, due to weak demand and an oversupply on the market.
