[erik1975]

you beat me to the punch.

I was just going to post the same thing . . . hide your credit cards!

[DeSnousa]

Same with the Australian store. Also my local reseller is having a sale, im talking about hundreds of iMacs, G5's, and just about all of the ranges. I have i feeling this time unless its a new look to go with tiger or regular checks or something.

[JRM PowerPod]

It happens again!

you beat me, couldn't be stuffed posting new thread.

New eMacs and iMacs here we go.

[JRM PowerPod]

Not a big change so give it 10 mins before the US goes down and and another 10-15 for them all to be back with new macs

[Peterkro]

US store down also.

"And so it begins..." :cool:

[mad jew]

Man, this is exciting news! I'm gonna have to apologise to all those hopeful people over the past week who claimed new machines would come out this soon after Tiger. I'm such a nay-sayer. :(

Sorry. :o

[Blue Velvet]

New iMacs & eMacs followed by a massive global advertising campaign across billboards, cinema & TV.

Fingers crossed and clutching lucky rabbits' foot.

[JRM PowerPod]

Hope there's new PowerMac's. About time they got above the 2.7GHZ mark. :D ;)

[wozzlewoozle]

Well lets see I just ordered my 12" PB on sun therefore, must be dual-core 5 GHz G6 powerbooks, now only 1/4" thick et cetera et cetera...

Or just the slightly updated iMacs and eMacs, (possibly lower priced ibooks) "everyone" has been talking 'bout.

[DeSnousa]

I think it will just be a eMac and/or iMac being upgraded.

[kiwi_the_iwik]

Right! I'm gonna put in my order for the top-spec G5 iMac as SOON as it comes back online. I reckon in about 2 hours...

[aswitcher]

So they have been down what 40 mins or so?

More like half an hour, I reckon.
Let the moths fly free from your wallet. :)

yeah, i love how apple give us the yellow post-its when we all know they dont *have* to. the anticipation it builds up is amazing!

[nospleen]

I knew this would happen, I waited and waited for the imacs and I finally purchased a powermac last week. :D I guess everyone can thank me for getting the updates this week. ;)

Ermmm...that isn't the font! At least not at my end...

[mad jew]

Good call. :D

Hopefully it's an anti-metaphor for the high techiness that awaits us when the store returns... :rolleyes:

Thats some sale. I have never seen anything like it before. Its like they are selling at cost.

[kiwi_the_iwik]

I'm a bit cut-up - I went to the Regent Street store the other day, and just couldn't resist buying one of those EyeTV 200 units for £219 (as the price had dropped from around £250). You know the feeling - car double-parked, crowded store, last item left, snap decision... etc... etc...

The fact is that once a month they have a firesale there, too - usually 15% off stuff, but sometimes more...

A few months back, I nearly bought the same thing - but at £165! It was a returned item, and further reduced in the sale. My suggestion to you all is to wait until the last Sunday of the month - usually around the time the firesales occur. That way, you'll get further reductions.

By the way - I AM pleased with the EyeTV 200 - but I'll be a bit peeved if the new iMac comes with a built-in TV tuner...

Bahh!

;)

UK store back up. A bit slow. New iMac (2Ghz) and eMac (1.42Ghz)

[Josh396]

Well the Store is back up and it looks like Thinksecret was dead on. I love the double layer superdrive on the iMacs and the APE + BT 2.0 standard. I wish the 400 GB drive was just a little cheaper though.
