Do the new iMacs have FireWire ports?

Monday, May 11, 2009 / Hardware

The descriptions of the current model iMacs don’t mention firewire. Do they have firewire connections?

Despite Apple’s most recent cut of FireWire as an included port in the Unibody MacBook line, FireWire is still considered a standard port on iMacs. The new iMacs even have a FireWire 800 port in addition to the FireWire 400 port. Currently it is only the MacBook and MacBook Air that are missing FireWire ports of any speed.

The ports look like this:

The back of an iMac is where youll find the ports.

Hope that helps,
