The iMac PCs prices include taxes, but actual prices will vary with local tax policies.

On comparing iMac prices with Samsung's new ATIV smart PCs in the Indian market, iMac seems expensive. Thrift buyers might think twice before buying Apple's iMac PCs, but Apple fans won't mind paying huge money for a high quality Apple product.
