The iMac has been voted as the Most Innovative Product for 1998 by CNET.
While the year isn't even close to being over yet, the news site has
publish its "Class of 98 Products and People Awards." The awards are
intended to "honor the greatest and brightest" for the year and are decided
by CNET's own editors.

The iMac was noted to potentially be the perfect home machine with its
unique designs and impressive hardware and software options. "The iMac's
design is so unique it commands a triple-take from most first-time
viewers," said CNET.

The iMac also shared a second CNET award this year. CNET voted Steve Jobs
and the iMac as the "Cutest Couple" for 1998.  CNET said, "This coupling
has all the hallmarks of a great relationship. The iMac, with its cute,
cuddly design, is making Steve Jobs and Apple look like winners again--and
helping to make the iMac the most successful product launch in the
company's history."
