A flop? Hardly
---I've never even seen one in real life, but I take it the Imac was
somewhat of a flop on Apples part.---

Uh, don't know what planet you're living on, but the original
iMac (the colored ones) was a huge success, credited with
bringing Apple back into relevance, and starting an enormous
trend in product design.
The flat panel iMacs, while not as earthshattering as the colored
ones, were also extremely successful for Apple.
