iMac G5 (17-inch, iSight)

Compared with the iMac G5 ALS (17-inch), this model has a built-in iSight camera above the display and an Apple Remote for Front Row. It has a 1.9 GHz G5 processor, ATI Radeon X600 Pro graphics, DDR2 memory and PCI Express. The case is thinner and lighter, but the inside is harder to service. Apple dropped the internal modem.
