Guess the date for next-gen iMac
What date do you think the next-gen iMac will be announced?
Personally, I don't think the new iMacs will come in July. I don't think they will announce it before earnings on Wednesday, July 25th. As you know the earnings report is in the afternoon. Apple likes to announce new products on Tuesday or Wednesday mornings. So I would say that a special event to announce the new iMacs will be on Wednesday, August 1st. I think it will come bundled with the new iLife suite, which will also be demonstrated at the special event.

July 24th Tuesday, my guess after intel announces another round CPU price cut on Jul 22nd.
I stand by my statement.
anytime between mon 23/7 to friday 3/8. Retailers stock is very low to non existant now, amazon listing availability as 1-3 weeks on all models and mac warehouse completely out of stock.
If it is going to be in July, they had better start handing out those invites soon though...

to what??
they dont necessarily have to launch the new imac using a special event do they?
week commencing 30th jul going into 1st august seems likely, but as i said re the stock of current imacs at retailers at the mo, very very much doubt it will eb much longer
What's your date?
Tuesday July 31st.
^ quote from a PiperJaffrey analyst.
I really hope we get something this month. 300+ days is ridiculous to wait for an update. The updates better be coming thick and fast real soon or I'll have to just sit here and be really miffed about it.
Over a month after it should have been released.
Amen, bro.

It does not matter for me anymore. I spent much lately elsewhere.

Bummer man
I came across this when browsing the news today:
http://www.electronista.com/articles...2.extreme.cpu/
A Merom processor "Extreme" capable of going to 3.0GHz due to arrive by the end of July. This made me think of the iMac as it would likely be too hot for the thin MBP. It could be especially good because Apple has needed a cooler desktop level chip and have yet to get the iMac to that level as there haven't been "Extreme" Merom Core 2 Duos before.
Maybe it's just wishful thinking that Apple will snatch up a processor of this caliber, but it truly is the first in it's class to reach these performance advantages.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say Tuesday.
We're going to hold you to that.

That processor is 2.6GHz, it could possibly by chosen for the top end 24" iMac.

If you hear "Extreme" think about price. This is not for the iMac.
also, last september apple launched the new imacs on a special event on sept 12th, invites sent out 1 week before on sept 5th,
so july launch still a distinct possibility
im hoping for tues jul 24th, but thinking tues july 31st
