hmmm, your iMac does have a backup battery that *should* keep this
information. It sounds to me like the battery is dead, it's a simple
3.6v Lithium battery, I think t's labelled 1/2AA size. I would
recommend you look at getting it replaced, it's not to hard, depending
on your skills and what iMac you have. Email me privatly with the model
(slot or tray loading cd-rom) and I'll give you directions if you wish.
