Penryn iMac and Mac Mini Updates Soon?
MacScoop claims that Apple is prepping refreshes to both the iMac and Mac Mini in the coming weeks.
The rumor site expects Apple to start including the 45nm Penryn chip in both the iMac and Mac mini. Meanwhile, they also expect the Mac Mini to upgrade to the GMA3100 graphics chipset used in the most recent MacBooks.
Recent Page 2 rumors have also suggested an imminent iMac release, though it's been some time since we've heard rumors about the Mac mini. Despite old rumors of its demise, Apple has continued to update the Mac mini with the last release in August 2007.
These Penryn updates will likely represent only minor upgrades, but the timeframe is consistent with the belief that Intel is quickly phasing out their previous generation processors.
Site sponsors are clearing out previous generation MacBook Pros (Amazon), MacBook Pros (Mac Mall), MacBooks, iMacs with discounts.

Though we don't have a precise release date, we expect the iMac and the Mac mini refreshes to happen within the next four weeks, inventory clearing being the only constraint.
