October 9, 2006

This month, EveryMac.com features comprehensive updates to the iMac "Core Duo/Core 2 Duo" Q&A and the Mac mini "Core" Q&A to cover the latest models. Additionally, all eMac specs pages have been improved.

The iMac "Core Duo/Core 2 Duo" Q&A answers "How much faster are the iMac 'Core 2 Duo' models than the original iMac 'Core Duo' systems?" and "How do you upgrade the RAM in the iMac 'Core Duo' and 'Core 2 Duo' models?" and everything in between.

The Mac mini "Core" Q&A answers "Is it possible to upgrade the processor in the Mac mini 'Core'?" and "How do I connect a Mac mini 'Core' to a television?" along with dozens of other questions.

Today's Discussion Q&A is "Do you think Apple will continue to offer the Mac mini after the introduction of the product codenamed 'iTV'? Why or why not?" Contribute your ideas.

In case you missed one, Q&As since the last major update include:

  • What type of video processor is provided by the iMac "Core Duo" and "Core 2 Duo"? Is it upgradable?
  • Is QuarkXPress available as a "Universal Binary"?
  • How does the Intel-based Mac mini "Core" compare to a similar Windows PC?
  • Is the Mac mini "Core" capable of H.264 HD playback?
  • Will Windows Vista run on the Intel-based Macs?
  • How much faster is the custom configured iMac "Core 2 Duo" with a 2.33 GHz processor compared to the stock model? Is it worth the extra cost?
  • What is the overall gaming performance of the Mac Pro? How well does it run Windows games?
  • What are the differences between the U2 Special Edition iPod models and the standard iPod models?
  • How do you upgrade the RAM in the iMac "Core Duo" and "Core 2 Duo" models? How much RAM of what type do these systems support?
  • Can I transfer additional games to the iPod?
  • Can you wall mount the iMac "Core Duo/Core 2 Duo"? Is it VESA compliant?
  • Are the CPUs on the Mac Pro upgradable? How are they mounted?

Added newly formatted/overhauled specs pages:

Updated the iMac "Core Duo/Core 2 Duo" Q&A.

Updated the Mac mini "Core" Q&A.

Updated the Currently Shipping page.

Please note, as is stated at the bottom of every page, the estimated retail pricing is now up-to-date for systems using the new format, but the pricing for other used systems remains woefully out-of-date. The pricing will be brought up-to-date as systems are updated in the new format. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
