Time Canada Shows New iMac

Posted by chrisd on from the i-still-miss-the-icon-garden dept.

Kira-Baka writes "Okay, Time Canada screwed up big time. They have pictures of the new iMac which will be released tomorrow during the Mac World Expo keynote on their front page. it is likely that they will be getting a letter soon so though..." I'll be posting a full report on the keynote and other MacWorld goodness tomorrow as it happens. Time Canada seems a bit slow, but in short, think little pod of iMac with superdrive and flat panel screen. Update: 01/07 13:22 GMT by T : Several readers have pointed out that the story can (for now) still be found mirrored here, though it's been pulled from the Time site.

  2. Um...it looks like....the cube. by Chanc_Gorkon · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I mean really! It looks like a different shaped cube. I take it the guts are in the hump that the stalk attaching the LCD panel to. You know, this isn't that big of deal. It's ugly compared to what was thought to come out. One thing is for sure.....this does like like a Job's one more thing device.

  3. Best is, they might switch to INTEL? by All+Dat · · Score: 2, Redundant

    There is an article here: http://www.newsfactor.com/perl/story/15616.html That talks about apples possible announcement that they will move to Intel chips, dumping motorola. Might be vaporware, but if not, well, you heard it here first folks. Worth a read, and it makes sense anyways.

  4. Re:bring back the style of NeXT by foobar104 · · Score: 2, Redundant

    Am I the only one that wishes Apple would dump Ive's "style" in favor of the classy NeXT machines?

    I don't know. The NeXT cube gave the impression of being carved out of granite. Good for a server or a supercomputer, but as a workstation it was just kind of silly.

    The magnesium case burned nicely, though.

  5. Keyboard and User Input? by BSDevil · · Score: 0, Redundant
    I've seen all the pictures of this new 'beautiful' iMac (ball and screen), but this begs the question of how anyone is gonna type on this thing without killing the design. Where are the keyboard and mouse (and their cables) gonnna fit?

    If you're gonna make somthing this singular and monolithic, then it needs either a touchscreen or a built-in (and default selected) wireless keyboard and mouse.
