There are working Intel Imacs within Apple's main headquarters...
I can't say exactly how I know...
But, let's say it's far enough along to where average employees have them in their offices.
Intel Imacs for MWSF...? I have no idea, but they seem to be ready.
Interesting but I'll believe it when I see it....:rolleyes:

Psshaw. As if there are any "average" employees at Apple. ;)

Couldn't they just be prototypes? I can't imagine that they are Yonah iMacs since no manufacturers have them in quantity yet. If they're Pentium M chips, who cares, they'll never see the light of day.

Apple never gives prerelease products to any of their "average employees." They don't even give any information about upcoming products to most of their employees.

Attempting to prove I have actual knowledge would only mean I would put someone's job possibly at risk.
Yes, this is a classic element of the "I know a guy" modus operandi. ;)

Much like the Intel iMacs in every cube in Cupertino, there is no picture. ;)

Come back, iMac rumor guy ... I want to hear about the Apple janitors wearing heads-up display wearable PowerBooks and the cafeteria staff's hologram iPods. I hear the parking attendant has an Apple branded jetpack.

C'mon -- we're being awfully mean-spirited, aren't we? This is a rumors board, after all.

I'm doubting that their will be an Intel iMac as soon as Video Shooter has rumored. Mainly because there has been no other rumors from MR, or TS or AI or anyone else. Also it would make more sense to update the iBook and Powerbook lines.

I don't know if there will be intel iMacs at Macworld (doubt it), but what I do know is that there is absolutely no way that any "average" employee is using any Apple product that has not been released yet. I worked for Apple and we did not even find out of official announcements until people started calling and asking about it. Even then it was months before the product started drifting into our offices and very few at that. I don't care if it is Cupertino or any other Apple campus, there is no one using an unreleased anything.
Either the thread starter is just trying to get the mills going or his "friend" is so FOS it is not even funny.

oh yea, and you forgot to mention the new 72 core PowerMac with a 32x 8 layer blueray drive, firewire16000 ports, dual 2048MB video cards capable of driving 16 30" displays, and a 250TB hard drive...
douche...

it would be very surprising unless these are pentium M imacs being used just for the sake of testing rosetta and the like.
It doesn't make sense to give intel to machines that already have a G5. Why not outfit the woefully lacking G4 lines first?

Did a Mod remove his/her statements or did he/she remove them after realizing that they have no clue what they are talking about?:rolleyes:

Hmmm!
A new scam!
1) Post a potential rumors that smells of NDA being violated
2) Quickly follow up with a few fast and furious posts
3) ???
4) Free post count!

If you'd ever been inside of 1 Infinte Loop, you'd know few people work in cubes. They are mostly small offices.

I'm not saying it's coming out for mwsf... just that they exist.
Have you read the rumors coming from MR, TS or AI...?
Yeah the latest one with signifigant product information said "thinner and lighter laptops"... WOW. Insightful! Laptops from Apple getting thinner and lighter OMG!

A small office could be like a really big cube.
Unless it's not cube-shaped.
They have spherical offices in Cupertino??
Pshh.. the ones I (wasn't supposed to see) that I saw while I was there were big, rectangular prisms.
Show me this office you speak of! :p

Anyone that really knew about Apple's Cupertino campus would know that their offices were originally to be called rhombohedricles, but this was later decided to be too Dilbertian.
