There have been lots of Apple rumors circulating this week, but this time, they aren’t rumors about the iPhone 4. This time, the rumors are about Apple’s computers. While some say Apple is preparing to overhaul its entire computer line, including the MacBook Air and Mac Pro, others are saying a new iMac is in the works. Let’s take a look at some of the information floating around various Apple gossip and tech sites:
- Some retailers are reporting that their iMac stock is dwindling.
- In the past, the release of new iMacs has come just after the start of a new school year. Most schools in the nation will start back in August, so it looks like the timing is right.
- According to the AppleInsider Blog, one distributor was told not to expect anymore shipments of the iMac in the near future.
Of course, rumors of a new iMac have Apple fans speculating on what the new computer could offer. The rumored new features include:
- Touchscreens
- Faster FireWire connections
- USB 3.0 connections
- A desktop version of iOS
- HDMI
- Dual and quad Core i5s and i7 processors
