Re: Next Imac revision what's in store
I don't think the iMac will ever have dual processors. No need for it.
However, I do think that it will be a non-portable desktop, like the first iMacs were. A laptop chip, maybe not laptop ram (SIMMS) but actual DDR-RAM, but I don't see why a G5 iMac is so far off, along with books at the same time.
Although, a whole series of Books just came out.
We'll see, we'll see.

Re: Next Imac revision what's in store
a low end G5 in the iMacs once IBM bumps the speed on the chips for the pro machines is possible. I see Apple wanting to distance themselves from Motorola at the moment.

Re: Next Imac revision what's in store
the only possibility i see for the imac is a G4 speed boost, nothing more. There aren't enough G5 speeds to spread around. Maybe once the G5 gets a few speed boosts, abandons a few speeds, the iMac can move in

G5 books are a long ways away, but new iMacs could realistically come out early next year (along with Rev. B G5s).

Re: Next Imac revision what's in store
There's been a major case revision every two years since the iMac's inception. Another one would make perfect sense.
But aluminum? It appeared that Apple was saving the krylon for consumers and the metals for pros.
Unless they do the same thing they did to fruity colors.
