Is it possible new pics are fake?

I know it's Time magazine, but might it still be part of Jobs' doing to really keep things in the bag?

Somehow I can't see this "lamp" as a natural progression from the previous design.

Please refrain from spiting this design. The masses here appear to drool over it.

I doubt it's fake. Time is a reputable publication, and Apple did well to have a 6 page article [ad] in Time for the new iMac.

Not fake. The magazine is now on the newstands in NYC. Features a 6 page article. Hello, Dolly!

JRC is not censoring you...he is referring to the fact that he got some grief at another post for not liking the new iMac....g

everyone is allowed their own opinions...it just comes off poorly sometimes...people sometimes talk like they hate apple when they don't...or sound like they prefer pc computers...in which case they should buy pc computers...i'm buying the new iMac today personally...g

Even if the article wasn't on newsstands yet, why would they spend all the time writing a 6 page article just as a joke?

This answers one question, then... why Jobs moved the keynote up a day. He obviously knew the magazine would be on the stands today.

With that in mind, Apple had to realize that they couldn't negotiate the cover story with Time AND keep the iMac a secret until the keynote. It's starting to look like Jobs knew this was going to happen, and decided the PR opportunity was more important than keeping a lid on the story.

How can you judge the new iMac when you haven't seen the thing in person yet? <img src="graemlins/bugeye.gif" border="0" alt="[Skeptical]" />
