iMac 17 inch, 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - Apple

Apple Store Search Results
www.apple.com

Found this interesting, Apple still shows the 17-inch white 2006 iMac for sale. All I did was look up 17-inch iMac on Google and this was the first result. Not sure if MR would report this or not, but thought I'd post it here.

At least for me, there is no info/pictures in the listing, if you add it to your bag it will show a picture of it though.
 
Wow! When a 17 inch screen was considered desktop size!
I still have a G4 swing arm iMac up on the shelf lookigng down at me solemnly...

Where's the picture? I don't see it.


Why would they sell decade old product?

When my 15 inch CRT died and when parents bought me 17 inch LCD for the first time, it was like I was immediately ejected into future.


Little did I know...

You have to add it to your bag, and look at the bag. It may not show it for everyone. This is most likely an error so it could break at any time.
 
When viewing my bag, the "A Few Recommendations" at the bottom also included a 24-inch core 2 duo iMac. Both computers have a December 26 Fastest, and December 27 Free shipping option. Looks like this was discovered some time ago as well (January 1, 2018 at least).

Strange - I would think that as often as Apple changes, or cleans up their on-line store, that two now-obsolete products, and both were main selling systems at the time (not third-party, nor any type of accessory) -- that those products could not appear on the active online store.
Maybe some kind of anomaly, or a pre-release publicity of some kind for new iMacs being released, or somehow related to holiday shopping?
Notice that the shopping bag shows that an order would be available for in-store pickup about December 27. Just a coincidence (?)
Anyone want to take a chance to see what happens?
