Even though I'm absolutely devastated that the new iMac's haven't been announced, I'm not giving up. Anyone else feel the same?
Got a tip for us?

i seriously cant be arsed waiting another month or so for what should have been announced today - if nothing is in the store tommorow morning i have lost my faith in apple
I feel the same as you guys but I can't live with the fact they could update it this summer and I have over a year old tech.
I'll wait. I'm switching from a failing 2008 MacBook Pro to a iPad 3/iMac combo, so an extra month won't be too much for me.
The Apple store is still down after the new notebooks have been announced, so clearly they haven't announced something or they're waiting to bring it back up until after the end of the keynote, with some silent updates to the desktop line.
Sigh. It's 4 am in Australia and I waited for nothing. I don't think I can live with Mountain Lion as it wont give full access to my plugins from the get-go (Logic Pro). So if they are REAAALLLY thinking about waiting for some god-damn software, then I think next week is the week I buy year-old software...
It's foolish to think they aren't updating the iMac this year just because they haven't talked about it in the keynote.
Have they done it in the past? Updating it weeks/a month or so after Keynote?
Just wondering
Last year's Mini's were 3 days after WWDC closed. (Or was it 2010? One of the two.)
Yeah. I'm waiting. I don't want to go and buy a 2011 iMac, only for Apple to release the 2012 models in July or something.
Exactly, same here. Some people getting a little melodramatic, I've waited a while I can wait a couple of weeks more but I wish I knew, that would make the waiting much easier.
If u don't need osx there's no reason not to grab the dell it's a better computer in all ways for 600 less...
Even though I am disappointed that the iMac wasn't updated at WWDC, I would imagine that they will update the specs shortly. 
They have to at least update the processors and graphics. I was hoping to see a total redesign, however, I was in the Apple store this weekend and the design of the current iMac is so nice, I don't know what they can do to make it better. I am not in a hurry to upgrade, so I can wait a few more months to see what happens. If I was in the market for a laptop, today would have been much more exciting.

It has over 10,000 hours of operating time.
Instead of a 27" iMac, I might just pass my 2 year-old MacBook Pro down and get myself the bottom-end $999 MBA or some other sub-$1000 refurb. I wanted to get her the iMac and have it double as a media server (currently we have a Windows 7 machine) but I can just keep the extra $1,000 in my pocket if all I can buy is outdated tech for full-price.
Here's to hoping for a silent upgrade.
