Read down to where it says NEWEST iMacs and Powermacs using GeForce 4 graphics.



Any thoughts?

    It says NEWEST, not NEW. whatever exists now is what is newest.

    I don't think it means anything crazy other than general marketing smoke. Sorry, I don't see any leaked info here.

    I dunno, it kinda sounds to me like they said the new iMacs and new PowerMacs have GeForce4 graphics, which obviously isn't the case right now. So, in order for this statement to be true, iMacs will have GeForce4 graphics at MWNY... <img src="graemlins/hmmm.gif" border="0" alt="[Hmmm]" />

    I must concur with SurfRat. It does sound like the iMac will have GeForce4 cards.



    Although I think its just a little misunderstanding. More likely a poorly written sentence than a slip-up.

    Yeah, I caught that too. I am expecting (an announcement, if nothing else) new Powermacs with an awesome video solution. I guess if the MLB isn't that greatly modified or revamped, the next best speed increase is on that end. And there was rumor of Apple and Nvidia working together on a new graphic chipset. Less than 5 days!

    Hmm, do you wonder if the baseball strike might delay any MLB modifications??

    <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" /> - MLB (baseball) is in worse straights than Apple's MLB troubles are in. Being in Wisconsin, we got to hear all about the All Star debacle first hand. What a fiasco. Here's to hoping that MWNY02 doesn't get called a tie because there are no more pitchers, ah, I mean hardware announcements.

    Agree... Probably just a poorly written sentence.



    However, nVidia has stated that it wants the GeForce4 line to replace the Geforce2 Line... (ie. Geforce 4MX replaces Geforce 2MX at same price points)



    So if the iMac gets and update, I would say that getting a 4MX is pretty likely.
