Updated iMacs this Week?

With multiple sites pointing towards possible updates this week -- iPods and PowerBooks are listed as leading contenders. However, according to reliable sources, it appears that it is the iMac updates that are imminent.



Our Buyer's Guide shows the iMac has come due for a revision, with a recent ThinkSecret report revealing specs for the new machines. Sources confirm a 1.0GHz and 1.25GHz speed bump to the iMac line, with the addition of USB2 -- inline with ThinkSecret's specs.



In addition, new information reveals that pricing will remain the same for the updated iMacs, coming in at $1299 and $1799 respectively.



An iMac update, obviously, does not preclude other announcements this week or at Apple Expo Paris.

Hmmm... perhaps a G5 Powerbook isn't too out of the question. It would be weird for them to update the iMacs before the Powerbooks.... could mean something... maybe...

Always nice to hear about an upgrade, but color me uninterested. It seems we all have a one track mind right now. My guess is that the iMacs are a kind of cover for ... no powerbooks this week. ugh!

People took too much importance into Steve's "Year of the Laptop" quote.

For a long time I've thought this. The way I took it was that Laptops would sell in significantly more quantities this year. Hence, the year of the laptop.

No more, nothing less. Not G5 are going to appear or just wait for what Apple are going to do in 2003...

Of course, "The Year Laptop" has turned into just that - "You will have your laptop all year, because we aren't going to up-date them!!" as some people have joked.

You people posting with your "hmmm G5 notebooks must be tomorrow" SLAY me! Too darn funny... funny and so incredibly wrong. Sorry jinky try next year.

As far as the iMac, seems too little too, uh, little. But hey maybe sources are wrong and they'll stick a G5 in it. [coughs] (those who don't know that was humor, ain't no G5 in the iMac until next year either if ever). What's curious is from poking around it looks like there's still supply in the channel of existing iMacs, maybe they're sick of waiting.

And as the case for PBooks, believe it when we see it, there's been talk of new iMacs since the beginning of summer.

And I can't wait for the G5 iPod, I bet that's going to be announced at Paris with the G7 Powerbook. [coughs]
