<div>Hi Luis,</div>

<div><br></div>
<div>So I'm not lucky with Apple building computers with weak points
and in fact the story of the iMac Intel 20" Alu is a sad story.
Although my sources are german, I just found an english one:</div>

<div><br></div>
<div>You could take the google tour perhaps with "iMac Intel 20"
no million colors?"</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>So I'm sad to disappoint you.</div>
<div>In this case Apple is a lyer.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I regretŠ :-(</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Take the 24" model, this is capable and has a better screen
too (but of course it is remarkable more expensive)</div>
