what would the point in a desktop without an optical drive may i ask? it makes no sense. its fine on a notebook, but a desktop???
Oh God, today is going to be an awesome day. I can tell already.![]()
So no verbal/slideshow/keynote presentation press event from Apple at their Cupertino campus, nor any Apple Store events, I take it? Just update the online store. How will the switchers know? Is there an app for that???
It's past 11 AM EST and the store is still down.
How often do you really use an optical drive? I think I do once a year when I buy a game.
There better be a 24 iMac. I just sold my 20 iLugger because I assumed a 24 iMac would be released.

Haven't you read that there is a mini server expected? what else would you think this is? There are a LOT of mini's used as servers and the opitcal drive is just a waste and added expense to those people who have racks of mini's configured as servers. Don't expect the size to change if the omit the optical drive as it is more of a cost savings than a model refresh.I just bought my mac mini 2 months ago! 2.53? Wow that would be really nice! Why do you think no optical drive? Just so they could fit in 1 TB?
An iMac with a 16:9 screen seems the perfect candidate for a Blu-Ray inclusion. Wonder what will happen with that. I for one want it.
