Late 2009 iMac overview

This 21.5-inch all-in-one desktop from late 2009 pairs an Intel Core 2 Duo 3.06GHz processor with 4GB of DDR3 memory and a 500GB hard drive. The LED-backlit IPS display runs at 1920 x 1080 resolution. It ships with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and uses NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics with 256MB shared memory.

Ideal for basic Mac tasks

Suitable for users who need a simple macOS machine for web browsing, document editing or media playback on a quality IPS screen. Buyers who want modern macOS versions, SSD speed or current web compatibility should look elsewhere. The older architecture cannot run today's applications or security updates.

Fixed desktop installation

Place the unit on a desk, connect power and peripherals through the four USB 2.0 ports and single FireWire 800 port. No internal assembly is required. Upgrading memory or storage later involves opening the sealed chassis, which is difficult and risks damaging the display or logic board.
