What's this about the iMac's Screen Size?
I was reading the Apple Store eNews just now, and I noticed something of interest in the iMac write up. It says this about the 17" one:
"With its bright, clear, 17-inch (16-inch
viewable), widescreen flat-panel display and built-in SuperDrive, the newest member of the iMac family is an incredible bargain at only $1999."
I didn't measure the model at the store, but it sure looked like 17". Anyone know if this is true?

Oh I see. A 19" CRT is the same width as a 17" imac. Hee hee so "if" you could use a 19" in 16:10 mode with black bars at the top and bottom you would have the same area. I suppose the statement is also true if you are watching a DVD, they would have the same picture size. It is misleading still non the less.
