We start off with another deal on iMacs, including a 21.5-inch 3.06GHz desktop machine with LED-backlit screen for $999. Also on tap is the latest batch price cuts from the App Store, including “Dogs Play Poker,” a poker game. Finally, we check out DMG Canvas 2 for the Mac, which helps create and customize disk images.
