http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/imac2135-1362526165_620x340.jpgWe've already seen Cupertino's 21.5-inch iMac (http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/03/apple-imac-review-2012/) up for sale on the company's refurb store (http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/16/apple-imac-refurbished/), and now it looks like the smaller model of the new all-in-ones (http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/30/2012-imacs-on-sale-now-first-look/) is ready to be taken at a cost tailored for educational institutions. Unlike with previouseducation-only deals (http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/08/discount-education-only-imac-appears-makes-you-wish-youd-opene/), however, Apple's pricing its newly redesigned iMac starting at $1,099 instead of $999 -- and that includes Intel's 3.3GHz, dual-core i3 CPU alongside HD Graphics 4000, a 500GB hard drive and 4GB of RAM. While the aforementioned specs are different than the ones found in the pricier entry-level variant for every-day consumers, it's worth mentioning Apple does offer the ability to upgrade some of the iMac's internals, such as memory and built-in storage. Those with the proper credentials can start ordering now from Apple, with, as MacRumors points out, orders being expected to ship within 5-7 business days.
