I'm not sure how such a patently inaccurate comment can be taken seriously but in order to present some facts for objective analysis, the current iMac line-up gives you 2 panel choices:
  • The 20" iMac comes with a TN-film, 6-bit panel
  • The 24" iMac comes with a S-IPS, 8-bit panel

Admittedly, TN 6-bit panels are not ideal for reviewing photographs (though certainly no worse than many consumer-grade panels) but I query whether anyone on this board can honestly tell the difference between properly calibrated panels using the software dithering required on a 6-bit panel and a true 8-bit panel!
