The Apple Store offers its factory-refurbished Apple iMac Intel Ivy Bridge Core i5 2.9GHz 27" Desktop, model no. MD095LL/A, for $1,499 with free shipping. That's tied with last week's mention of a refurb and $150 under the lowest total price we could find for a new one. Features include an Intel Core i5-3470s 2.9GHz Ivy Bridge quad-core processor, 27" 2560x1440 widescreen LED-backlit glass display, 8GB RAM, 1TB 7200 rpm hard drive, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M 512MB graphics card, AirPort Extreme (802.11n), two Thunderbolt ports, FaceTime HD camera, Bluetooth 4.0, Gigabit Ethernet, Magic Mouse, wireless keyboard, and OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion. A 1-year Apple warranty applies.
