iMac Update Slated For Late June

MacRumors · 11:30 PM

Think Secret believes that the iMac may be updated by late June, and echoes a previous report by Appleinsider that the revision would not include the 17" model.

While no technical details have been discovered regarding the next iMac revision, Appleinsider said in its previous report that the revision would showcase "striking new industrial designs aimed at leaving both competitors and onlookers smitten."

On a related note, Think Secret believes that Apple will soon update its display line to swap out the 23" display for the same 24" LCD used in the iMac.

I bet lots of new hardware when Leopard is out or presented as a full featured beta.

Still think leopard will run on generic PC hardware (Apple can't prevent it) so i'm wondering what hardware Apple is going to present to compete with Dell and others.

I hate how every mac rumors always has that cryptic section that doesn't really make sense and is always left out of future posts.

Plus everything they said is kind of obvious.

I hope it will have the touchscreen feature.

yzp · May 21, 2007, 07:49 PM

Zwhaler · May 21, 2007, 07:50 PM

They are waiting on new faster processors...wait a second...oh yeah that was the excuse in the PowerPC days.

Now since we are with a chipmaker that is coming out with upgraded and much faster processors every couple of months or so, there is no excuse anymore.

Neato! I can't wait to see what the industrial design geniuses over at Apple have come up with! "Striking industrial design?" Sounds wonderful.

ero87 · May 21, 2007, 07:53 PM

no "?" at the end of the title? Shouldn't it say "iMac updates in June?"

I've noticed this as a recent trend at MR... i thought if it's a rumor, it gets a question mark. n'est-ce pas?

It's gotta be good to beat the current design. Perhaps the new design will have breasts.

eenu · May 21, 2007, 07:54 PM

I do hope this turns out to be correct as the GF is buying an iMac at the end of June so i can play with it

NewSc2 · May 21, 2007, 07:59 PM

LED-backlit?

Play with what? The breasts or the computer?

Yeah the Mac Mini needs a bump desperately.

But I am interested in the "striking" new design for the iMac

Yep. Should be a question mark in the headline. But there is that giant question mark graphic in the main text cell. . .

elppa · May 21, 2007, 08:13 PM

A new design would be nice, not that there's anything wrong with iMac at the moment, but the Pro Laptop, Pro Desktop and Home Desktop machines have all looked the same pretty much for a number of years now.

And you can bet it will be thinner!

Steve loves thin.

Konradx · May 21, 2007, 08:17 PM

Has the mini been left in the dust? I'm happy for the iMac, but the mini hasnt been really touched. I hope the iMac has a 8800GTX so all the mac fans can play Starcraft 2

polishmacuser · May 21, 2007, 08:19 PM

i wonder how the design will look like?

flopticalcube · May 21, 2007, 08:21 PM

Probably iPhone on a big scale.

Up to now this has been a poor year for Mac hardware. Airport Extreme and AppleTV are the only 2 new products this year and they aren't even Macs!
