The original iMac was an all-in-one design that introduced individual style and personality to computers, which made them much more appealing to people for personal use. For the first time, people would actually show off their computers, rather than hiding them under their desk. Also, the iMac accelerated the adoption of USB as a de-facto interface standard in the PC world, and was the first mainstream computer design to drop the use of the floppy drive. It depends on who you ask, but one of the things is that a whole computer is almost as thin as a flat-screen LCD.

In fact, i saw somewhere a picture of the iMac with the caption: "Hey, where'd the computer go?"
