Apple Pro Machines -- Still Coming?

Appleinsider claims that according to their sources, the 'Brilliant Savings' promotion does not indicate that PowerMac/Display updates are delayed.

According to the site, the June end date for that promotion simply corresponds with Apple's 3rd Fiscal Quarter.

As previously reported, we have received information that Apple is in the process of prepping new products for release.

If they don't, Steve will have a hard time keeping his promise of 3 Ghz.

I think we'll be seeing new product soon. I really don't believe this will be too long a dry spell....

This Tuesday is as good a time as any -- although I guess I could just settle for another wireless mouse firmware update. That one got my adrenaline pumpin'!!!

I think Apple is forced to release new revisions before the 3Ghz model. Q2 sales will look terrible if they do nothing when everyones is waiting for new machines.

In the Brilliant display post I had mentioned that companies do have promos when new products are released to ensure that they sell well, and to boost numbers for potrential buyers. That makes even more sense given that it also is the end of the third quarter. Don't Let me down Apple.

yeah - seriously. The last thread seemed to be 400 to 4 in bashing Apple for putting off Powermac updates. I know its Apple- but sometimes they want to give customers a good deal - to get the best products out fast so people can rave about them!!!

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but maybe the promotion is intended more to reduce the inventory of Cinema HD displays rather than that of the G5s. It doesn't list G5 part numbers in the promotion details, although that might not mean much.
