Apple Introduces $899 Education Configuration for 17-inch iMac

Apple:
Apple today introduced a new $899 configuration of the 17-inch iMac designed specifically for education customers featuring a 1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, a built-in iSight video camera and iLife ‘06, the next generation of Apple’s award-winning suite of digital lifestyle applications. The 17-inch iMac for education is available immediately and will replace the eMac, Apple’s last CRT based computer, providing students and teachers everything they need to learn and create in today's digital classroom, all in the ultra-efficient iMac design.
Obviously, this is a smoking deal, despite a few serious limitations compared to a "normal" iMac (integrated video, two RAM slots taken up, combo drive). Who cares? This is a smart offering.

And for the record, I'd give up parts of my anatomy to be a college student these days.
