Hey everyone....I'm looking to place a 20" Aluminum iMac in my kitchen but height wise I am thinking I may block the isight with the trim board below the cabinets. Would someone please accurately measure a 20" Al iMac height wise from the bottom (the table which it sits) to the top part of the isight. I suppose the best way would be for the imac to be looking straight ahead too. Thanks a ton in advance. I really appreciate it.

The top part of the iSight is 45,3 centimeters from the "base", which is 9 millimeters high, so that puts it at 46,2 cm from the table. I may be 1 or 2 millimeter off.

I concur with the numbers Firewire posted. I get almost exactly 18.5 inches from table top to the center of the iSight lens. That works out to 46.99cm; acceptable measurement tolerances (including the hard-to-see iSight lens), I think.
