New iMacs Released

X7800 comes stock @2.6Ghz, 7900 2.8Ghz, both over-clockable, both mobile/laptop designed CPU's. Unless Apple has a special underclocked...hehe, they've done it before with PPC's
, 7800 which would make no sense at all, either the MR story is incorrect, or it's a different CPU than X7800/X7900 series.True, but the Apple store is currently down, we'll have to wait. Seems unlikely though, desktop CPU's generate too much heat for the already problematic thin iMac case (using laptop CPU's).
The Apple.ca website (assuming all Apple websites are down) currently in order for updates.
I tried to contact the 1-800-MY-APPLE number and the guy on the line 'Dan' said he couldn't order the new iMac for me either until the website is back up which he expects in another 45mins to an hour. (1230 hrs Mountain Time)
Wooo hoo.. I can't wait to order it...

this is not the same keyboard as the previously leaked... the new apple keyboard doesn't have a number keypad... the new keyboard is much like the old iMac G3 keyboard... which sucks...
[EDIT] oh nevermind... just read about the 2 dif keyboards... now i'm happy

Yeah, because you know, two screws were hard, and one screw will be even harder!
I read some reviews and these 2400xt Ati for the lowest priced imac, it´s a piece of ****.
The 2600pro(for the expensives macs) don´t get too far too.
I was expecting a 8600GT(like mbp) minimium.
With all those games there are going on mac, i think those will be full playable only on a MAC PRO with updated graphic cards.

Question about the hard disk capacity
Mr. Jobs mentioned a 1T hard disk capacity.
Do you suppose this means:
a) each disk can be up to 1T in size
b) each partition can be up to 1T in size
c) the total amount of disk that can be handled within the box is 1T
d) the total amount of disk that iMac can access is 1T
The reason I ask is that with the prices of hard disk plummeting, I could easily seem people putting in T sized media centers, where their iTunes, DVDs, photos, etc. are stored, with the item on the house's wireless network, and iTV, iPod, iPhone, etc. all eventually being able to access and make use of the data.
However, 1T becomes a tight fit as HD quality video, etc. starts becoming common.

One screw to change Ram.... It will take so little time I dont think I will have the time to have any fun... thanks though!!
Oh, I know, I was addressing the fact he said RAM, is the current iMac's hard drive even user serviceable? If it is, I learned something new today.
tim said they were refreshing the mac mini. They didn't talk about it at all. What's gonna happen?
also... i don't see a remote in those images... humm... would be sad if the remote was no longer included... but it would be AMAZING if the remote was finally bluetooth instead of 70s IR.
but interestingly the camera i just bought this past weekend matches the new iMac! now i have to buy it

Anyone else thinking that the gloss-only option represents hardware being obligately put in place for future touch compatibility?
During Q and A....
Will the iPhone's "multitouch" features filter down to the Mac eventually? Jobs said that it doesn't make a lot of sense in the Mac. "I would classify that as a research project at present," he added
LOL.....research project my A@#. (Tsunami to come)
