How new are the iMac? They do support extended and mirroring, but at that price, I would be looking at the 2009 as oldest to be of that value. You can source a nice MacPro that is much more upgradable for the same price off of eBay. I jacked up mine to 32 gig ram and 1 gig Vram to support three monitors. Running four 1 gig drives, one set as RAID, internally and external RAID for time machine.
