I am hoping it is mid-March. Having to decided to make the move to Mac in December, it's been painful having to wait. 😛
Got a tip for us?

The 2009 (Penryn) iMac: Everything We Know

I've never owned a Mac, and am waiting on purchasing my first one to replace my desktop PC. I've been following this and other Mac websites for about a year now.
I know historically Mac releases things on Tuesdays. As I read the forums on Mondays, I always (and I mean ALWAYS) see new threads appearing about the possibility of a new release the following day.
Since I've been following Mac, yes releases have come on Tuesdays, but also, there is usually a press show of some kind (notable exception: white mb), to which tickets are sent out 5-7 days in advance.
Does anyone honestly expect a surprise refresh of imacs/minis/pros or is it more likely we'll know a week in advance when they are to appear because of a leaked "Spotlight on..." invitation?

iMac and Mini can be a surprice because nothing major will be added to 'em (maybe redesign for mini but in the video it looks like old). Pro isn't going to be released yet, maybe in Q2.
It's possible that we'll have press conference in March but I can't understan why we need that
Time to update this thread guys! 😀
Today's rumors basically put more weight on existing rumors, speculation, and evidence:
Today's rumors basically put more weight on existing rumors, speculation, and evidence:
- NVIDIA graphics
- Core 2 Duo, likely 1333 MHz FSB, 3.0 GHz option
- Imminent release
I'd really like to put this in the first post, but for me this is still too little evidence. If the store goes down today, I might.
Even though it appears an update is pending this morning I have a feeling any iMac change will only be a minor spec increase and that any substantial changes will come later this year.
