Remains of the Day: Born in the USA
Macworld - New iMacs are coming from inside the country! Elsewhere, Apple lets you buy iPhone 5s until your heart is content, and Ashton Kutcher's Steve Jobs impression is a little eerie. The remainders for Tuesday, December 4, 2012 are just dancing in the dark.
Some new iMacs marked as being 'Assembled in USA' (AppleInsider)
It appears that some recent iMac models bear a tiny note that they were "Assembled in USA." AppleInsider points out that in order to earn the label, the device must in fact be more than just put together in a "screwdriver" operation.

Speaking of new iMacs, Ars Technica points out that Apple's latest desktops don't have the same connector SSDs as the new Retina MacBooks, so you can't just mount your own solid-state drive in them.
