Retailers Corroborate iMac Refresh Rumor For Next Week

Things are looking good for a now probable iMac refresh this coming week, with MacRumors' retail sources confirming that new iMac part numbers have shown up in their systems. Delivery should hit about Monday or Tuesday and fall in line with the current pricing ($1199, $1499 and $1799). And according to MacRumors, the Penryn processor switchout doesn't make a whole lot of gain for desktop units (reduced power consumption there is just meh), so the storage increase and speed bump should be the reason why you'd want to grab this over an older model.

Dell XPS One, Gateway One and Apple iMac Get Friendly

The All-In-One is in full effect this year, with some very hot models: the Gateway One, the Dell XPS One and Apple's new iMac. While it's nice to pick favorites and all, the fact is, each of these are better than most computers out there, and each has particular design traits that stand out. I've given awards in different categories at the end of this piece, but in the meantime, this is really a walk through of different design choices. If it seems to lean heavily on the Dell XPS One, that's because it's newer, and we've already spent more time on the Apple and the Gateway. So take a leisurely stroll through all of this stuff, compare and contrast, and at the end, hell, call your own winner.

Santa Rosa-based iMacs with Brushed Metal Frame on the Horizon?

Call it wishful thinking, but the folks at 9 to 5 Mac are reporting that Apple's new iMacs (which they say will debut at WWDC) will pack Intel's Santa Rosa technology and come in sizes larger than the current 24-inch model. Both are pretty safe assumptions, but what they'll look like is up in the air. Will they have brushed metal frames, will they resemble Apple's Cinema Displays, or is Apple dropping a completely new design on us? Only a few days before we officially find out. – Louis Ramirez More »

Apple Dumping its 17-inch iMac for Beefier 20 and 24 inchers

The folks at Apple Insider are reporting that Apple will soon ditch its baby iMac (17-inch model) to make room for new 20- and 24-inch systems. Like the MacBooks, the speed bumps on the iMacs are expected to be modest. The new models (which are rumored to arrive at the end of June) will also be accompanied by a new line of 24-inch Cinema Displays. Personally I think it's about time they ditch the 17-incher. People want wider and bigger, and even though the 17-incher is an entry-level machine, it'd be nice to see Apple make 20-inches a standard (without jacking up the price too much). – Louis Ramirez More »

No Blu-ray for iMacs till 2008

Anyone who was hoping for a built-in Blu-ray drive in their next-gen iMac is gonna have to wait till mid 2008. That's when Intel will replace their current Bearlake chipset with their Eaglelake chipset, which will officially support Blu-ray. Apple is infamous for waiting before they adopt new technologies, so in a sense this comes as no surprise. The question is, how badly do you want an integrated Blu-ray drive in your next iMac? Bad enough to warrant not buying one without a high-def drive? – Louis Ramirez More »

iMac Flexes its Vista Muscle

The folks at Microsoft must psyched at the thought of next week's Vista launch, but apparently some of them are a little too giddy in the head for their own good. It appears some MS reps from Norway went on air and demoed Vista on an iMac—not once acknowledging the fact that they were using a Mac. We had our suspicions that Bootcamp would let you run Vista on a Mac, but we thought MS would've wanted to use, y'know, a PC to show off their new OS. Hit the image for a look at the video. – Louis Ramirez More »
