Aren't they all incremental iPad updates? Heck, for the last 3 years we have gotten incremental iPhone updates and I thought the iPhone was suppose to turn over faster design wise.
All I know is that we better not get a iPhone 7S this year. 4 years with the same design is pathetic.

I have cash in the bank for a new iMac. Too bad Apple doesn't want my money.
I'm waiting for both a new iMac and a new iPad, but excitement for the iMac is far, far ahead for me.
Also, 5000 posts!
The'll weld a stand and a 1TB 2.5" HDD onto a iPad 21.5" 16GB flash and announce it as the iMac Computer Pro. 20% premium over the old iMac. Thinnest one yet!
Ohhh that 5400RPM hard drive tho. It's 2017 maybe we will get a 7400RPM if we're lucky

It will be a fusion drive with 1GB SSD.
I’m holding my breath for a WWDC announcement of:
Mac Mini
Mac Pro
Magic Keyboard with Touch Bar
Apple Branded 5K Display
I’ll order all four, day of, sight unseen, if this happens.
I don't want the mini but I'd take the rest. I'd rather not wait until WWDC though either, I still have some hope of a Mac announcement in March. I'm prepared to be disappointed.
Maybe Tim could show us how the pipeline is being built and give an estimate date when it will be finished.
I've done the same - the gfx is the most compelling part, but it will be a long time before I can afford an iMac again if I blow the budget on a pc. I'd really love to see an iMac that is actually exciting, but I'd take a spec bump.
There's more than one reputable supply chain analyst?
Well said, I'm in the same situation. It doesnt help that the prices here in the UK have recently gone from being expensive to sheer eye-watering.
You're wrong on the money part... my bet is Apple has already one hand in your wallet. Expect price increases with each incremental update on every Apple product X. If their tech doesn't make it premium, their prices will.
Form over function, money over instant: welcome to The new Apple
Oh stop the platters from spinning please, the speed is making me dizzy.
Sadly you are probably right. I'm thinking Apple must have bought out the remaining supply of 5400 drives back in 2000 for all their upgrade needs for years to come. /s
Well, one thing that would be good is major overhaul of and improvement in auto-correct!
I gave up counting the number of posters here who are interested in refreshes of the "iPad's"!
It left us wondering exactly iPad's what? Its pen, its screen, its home button?
Of course, we'll have to wait until WWDC (some year) before auto-correct -- and a massive host of other iOS and OS glitches and inconsistencies -- ever get fixed.

I think Tim said he would like Apple to be more green. He is recycling HD from the 1984 macintosh into the iMacs. This time he glues them so you've to swap the whole computer if it breaks. Tim wants your money wise spent.
Aah... another Apple iToy release event to rub yet more salt into the wounds of Mac users. Magical!
Oh yes please... new anything, just anything... 2016 only the gimmick MacBook Pro with out of touchbar. Now, 6 months later... properly, possibly iPads.New spring Watch bands please
At this pace I would even applaud watchbands.
Just anything NEW, peeelleeeaaasssee
New products are great--whatever. I just want my iPad Pro to see my Bluetooth mouse or touch pad. Is that so much to ask Apple?

Look for 'one more thing' at keynotes from Xiaomi. They've copied the iPhone design years ago and are now ahead and they've always the famous Steve Jobs saying... one more thing. At least they deliver where Apple lags these days

The only drawback with Xiaomi is their products are not available in the U.S. I believe it's only China.
