Post your info on shipping dates here!!!

We´re not seeing anything new within the next few weeks/months....move along

Maximum trolling, troll. Tim Cook himself said during the earnings call that there would be new Macs this fiscal quarter. That means we have, at most, five weeks remaining. End of story. Take your trolling elsewhere.

All we're left to guess is which week it will be. It's looking more and more like the week of WWDC, which is lame because they've never done that before but Apple can still come out of left field sometimes.

 

[iMcLovin]

he did not say that. you are twisting the words to benefit your own wishful thinking.
So shut up, I´m not trolling, just being a realist...

The above comments should be in the "when" thread
This one is for shipping times , not opinion or bickering

canadian store shipments have gone to 2-4 business days.....can that mean something?

No.

All countries have seen it fluctuate from 1-3 to 2-4 days over the last two months.

Seems to coincide with week ends and public holidays.

Once they start going over 5 days is when we should start getting excited.

I think it's worth noting that in Canada, MBA and MBP are still in stock, but the stock levels of iMac, Mac Mini and Mac Pro have all slipped. Have they ever relaunched the entire desktop line-up at once?

 

[iMcLovin]

Hmm, I think its worth noticing the canadian stores in stock on all non desktops. Though it can mean nothing, its work following for the next days...hopefully it means something.

Even if apple hasn´t released all new desktop on the entire line before, they have made extensive updates on multiple products before. I dont see why it cant be the entire desktop line this time, as they have totally neglected desktop machines for some time now. ...-if they do, make sure to buy this upgrade and dont wait for a next one next update will probably be 2 years of waiting time.

 

[Confuzzzed]

Ok, as of now I am also giving up on tomorrow as d-day. Besides, with it being memorial day week, it was unlikely anyway so look forward to 11 June now. In my opinion that is.

 

[Smartie]

Swedish Apple store back to "in stock" on all base models. Went from 1-2 days delivery on all since last week.

 

[iMcLovin]

as expected
we're not close to an update. I suspect they will present new models on WWDC, but they will not be released until late summer as they probably are dependent on Mountain Lion.

I think they will come out before ML with a free upgrade. It won't make financial sense to wait.

I hope ,today is last tuesday in May..
and nothing seems to move here
except the ground for the earthquake
in Italy at 9.00Am 12.56 pm..

"Tuesday" not Thursday

They likely won't wait for ML, doesn't make much sense. Plus third party stock and slashed prices can't ride out 2 more months

Well know in 14 days, if not 13. If WWDC starts like last year where someone says were talking about software, I'm turning it off so to speak. If it comes and goes with no mention of imac , thats gonna blow.

I am expecting the refresh during WWDC. If it is during WWDC, then it will be a substantial revamp.

Im guessing 10 11 or 12 june

That way it makes sense to go with the attention of Apple that week but wont take away from wwdc headliners. Also for new sales to make June Mac profitable &. Theres a higher mix of macs (not a mac) in June. + sales/ stock and ML is not gonna hold it back. Maybe ML will come sooner. Latest preview is looking good

 

[Nandifix]

Yep the new iMacs will have to now come at wwdc as they can't go any longer with over a year old hardware. I'm wondering how they will fit everything into the conference as they will be announcing the MacBook pros as well?

 

[iMcLovin]

it will be like 2 years ago on WWDC, you expect a lot, and the only thing that comes out is one of the macbook pro size 17" and no info about anything of the rest we are waiting for. I'm just expecting this, as I've experienced this kind of disappointments from Apple before. Then you are left in limbo as to when you will see any more happening....and suddenly a month/6 months/or a year after something cool happens with only a few rumors around. Remember this also happened with mac mini, which had been unchanged for almost 2 years. And Mac Pro, who knows, will apple discontinue it?, continue it?, should professionals start to look elsewhere - Probably you know as much after WWDC as you do now.... Very frustrating with the secrecy when the timelines can stretch out so long between the updates.

Agreed. And Apple was better back before iphone ipad. And with MacWorld. You were guaranteed Mac attention in January

 

[HurryKayne]

that's my fear too
New Imac+Retina,+better Gpu,Redesign+new Cactus Ridge Thunderbolt+New MacBook Pro
with Air redesign+Nvidia?
Mac pro????New form factor..or it is just dead?
and what if Mac Pro dies..maybe an Imac Pro borns next?or a Mini Pro?and the i-Tv?...
and so on...Then WWDC .comes..AND... "nothing" we were hoping for happens..
i do confess that i'm "scared" to see some of this wishes..to be just..that...wishes.
I really hope to see SOOON Imac 2012 with amd 7970m,Cactus Ridge and thats it..no retina (don't wanna my 7970 too busy to play with me^^)no new design,maybe just a small one with the optical drive out..
What i see is that while we havent any new rumors about MACS..we instead have the new backplate of the the next iphone 5...

[iMcLovin]

Yeah, ...like I care about more parts of iphone 5 or any next ipad. I haven´t even gotten to get bored of my 4s yet, and hardly had time to play with my "the new ipad"...the leaks and rumors are just boring nowadays.
I´m so sick of the waiting game I´ve just sent my wife out to buy curtains for the money that was meant for a new Mac. That´s how little there is to spend it on these days

and that mac pro mockup isn´t pretty, its like a crude mockup of a macbook air, nothing else. If Macbook Pro comes to that, they might as well remove both air and macbook pro and have one laptop called a macbook again.

Wow. On the money. Agreed

You spending your iMac money on curtains? You must have some pretty big windows!
But seriously I decided to wait at the start of the year and now it might not be out until late Summer? Lets hope its been worth the wait.

At this point, "in for a dime, in for a dollar" applies to me. There is no circumstance where I'd buy the 2011 at this point; although if I had suspected in February that June was likely I might have pulled the trigger then, now I may as well ride the storm and get the best iMac I can whenever Apple chooses to push out a new model.

I know traditionally Apple doesn't care about specs so much as making sure the whole package works together. But if they want to claim the remaining 88%+ of the market, at some point they're going to need an offering for people who watch specs and react a little faster to component updates. This is a much bigger factor for them that they're accustomed to; I'm not sure if they realize how much direct comparison they invited to other offerings when they moved away from the PPC architecture.

Big windows and yeah they need to be fancy curtains to hide the sun reflection from my too-glossy iMac screen

I feel the same. There´s no way I would buy the current model, even if they cut the price in half. I need more juice and I´m willing to pay for it. I´ve even started playing with the idea of jumping off the entire mac bandwagon. I need a proper upgrade and I´m really fed up of waiting by now...and some day I may not have the patience for apple anymore....but the hardware is quite a notch more sexy than any kind of PC´s, so I´m gonna be patient for a month or so more...if there´s no shred of news by then I´m getting PC of beyond earthly powers (I´m nearly halfway there only by the prices apple charge for their current imac 256 SSD drive alone)

 

[davidgnomo]

It is so disappointing to have to admit that iMcLovin is damn right !!!

Enough of this whole iPhone and iPad madness, I'm seriously thinking about switching to a new pc ...
