First new iMac images ??

good to see someone definitely knows what's going on then!

I like the TV style concept with the bulge on the back, horizontal cd drive, who ever made that put some time into it!

So much rubbish is said on this forum without any credible source’s whatsoever.
Thanks for the very productive post, Pippin. We wouldn't know what to do without it..
 
Most of the rubbish comes from one source.
Speaking of which, Mi, the photo you keep attaching is one of the mockups from a German site designed by students to come with possible looks for the new iMac. If you're going to be making stuff up, at least don't use photos seen in every other mac news and rumor site for months now.
 
funny thing I found on the web
the new powerbook:

OMG!!11!11one111 ... It says Titanium on the side of the box... We have been hoaxed again . :(
 
If that were the new iMac, no one would buy it. It's the worst design I've ever seen. Even the first iMac is better than that piece of crap. Who wants their monitor sitting on the desk like that? It needs to be at eye-level. Obviously a fake.
 
>If that were the new iMac, no one would buy it. It's the worst design I've ever seen.<

Nobody (ok some did but not a whole lot) bought the last one (sunflower) so i'm not sure we are in any position to know what people will buy.
 
Didn't Steve Jobs say he went with the design of the lamp iMac because if the drives were mounted sideways it would degrade the performance of those drives. Why would he change his mind now?
 
I think a lot of things are being missed here...

One is, Apple is attempting to reduce the foot print of all their products. People loved the quality of the previous cinema displays, but hated the base...enter the new AL displays. Smaller foot print, sleeker styling.

When Apple went from CRT to LCD on the iMac, they not only managed to create a machine that was a fraction the size and took up a tiny amount of desk space, but they created a machine that had functionality throughout the design. The display could be moved and adjusted as you wished. The question is, what is the evolution of this design?

Now, I don't know what that is, but, maybe its interchangable displays? Maybe, since the new AL displays are wall mountable, they have devised a way to snap either a 17" or 20" display onto the machine. It keeps people using the Apple displays and gives them the opportunity to upgrade their displays at a later date.

The hottest thing I've seen today was over at Spymac...

The first thing that comes to mind is, the opposite of your desk, would be your lap, so in that sense, this could be some sort of reference to a portable (I won't say PBG5, though I will scream if it happens). The other concept would be moving from the desk (work) to the living room (leisure). Maybe we're going to the wall, because the new iMac is wall mountable and comes with standard bluetooth keyboard and mouse?

Maybe I'm not going to sleep between now and keynote? ;)
