This update of EveryMac.com features a comprehensive revision to the "Tapered Edge" Aluminum iMac Q&A to cover the latest iMac model and the Ultimate Mac Lookup has been enhanced with support for worldwide order numbers.

The "Tapered Edge" Aluminum iMac Q&A answers "What are all the differences between the 'Late 2013' and the 'Mid-2014' iMac models?" and "How do you upgrade the hard drive in the 'Mid-2014' iMac? Is it even possible?" and everything in between about the current line.

Now -- in addition to support for order numbers from the United States, as always -- EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup supports order numbers from dozens of other countries around the world, as well.

For example, if you are in the UK and type in MA970B/A, in Mexico and type in MD093E/A, or in Singapore and type in MB292ZP/A, EveryMac.com will uniquely identify the appropriate Mac Pro, iMac, and iPad in each country, respectively.

It is hoped that you find this major addition to EveryMac.com helpful. With your continued patronage of the companies that sponsor the site, EveryMac.com will be able to serve you for years to come.
