iMac iSexy


iMac G5I knew it was coming, Apple Expo Europe in Paris was the popular guess and a correct one in this case. They had stopped shipping their last model of iMacs back in early July with the promise that a new model was on the way in September. That was met with mized reactions - no one could buy an iMac for a while, which was bad planning on the part of Apple. The positive side of things that I looked at was that the reason Apple stopped selling iMacs was because they ran out of parts. The demand was so great that they couldn’t meet it. In general that sounds like a bad thing, but to me it simply means that Apple’s computers are gaining popularity. Unfortunately they have to rely on other companies to produce elements like hard drives and processors which are reasons that there are delays on the Dual 2.5 GHz G5s.

However, that is not the point. The point is that the new iMac has been unveiled and should start shipping by mid-September. I must say however, that if I didn’t just buy a G5 I would seriously take a look at these new machines. The entry level price is quite reasonable and it is a nice machine. I mean look at it. I’m not going to go into all the sexy details because I can say it quite as well as the fine copy writers at Apple can.
