The eMac brought G4 power and a 17 inch monitor to the familiar iMac form factor. The eMac was initially available only for educational markets. It shipped in two configurations: a 32x CD-ROM model for $999 U.S., and a CD-RW/DVD-ROM model for $1199 U.S. In June 2002, the eMac was released to the consumer market in a single model, with a CD-RW drive and 128 MB of RAM, for $1099 U.S. In August 2002, the eMac received a speed-bump and feature upgrade, and was released to the consumer market. The $999 U.S. model ($1099 U.S. consumer) now shipped with a CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive. A $1499 U.S. 800 MHz model was also released to the consumer market, with 256 MB of RAM, a 60 GB hard drive and a SuperDrive.
