Signs of new macs coming???

well if this continues who needs a G5 imac, maybe we will keep seeing cheaper pro towers and the next imac will be a 1.4 G4

The dates are probably not a great indicator on a third-party offer. We usually look for offers from Apple that expire on a certain date.

Another thing to watch for, and I don't know where the guys get their data, is dropping stock levels on certain machines.

Right now, we would like to know if the stock quantities of G4 iMacs have been dropping. If distributors can reorder and get large orders fulfilled, that means lots of stock in the pipeline, and no new machines coming anytime soon. When the 15" Alubooks were coming out, Apple really let the bottom of the barrel get thoroughly scraped.

I'd like to know this because I want to know if a G5 iMac is coming out soon. If it's not, I might look for a used/refurb 1.8 single. I'd really prefer the iMac because the tower is so huge! but I certainly am not going to spend over a thousand bucks on another G4 - I'll stick with my Cube.

I hear you, motorola through the years has taught me patience if nothing else. im in the same boat as you but i want a new machine. funny how the new 1.8 singles have dropped so much in price.

I think they usually start offering rebates when the new ones are about to be released.. my QS had a rebate offer about 2 months before the MDD's came out.
