“The soon-to-be-announced, re-designed iMac will be available in two 17-inch models with a 1.6GHz G5 processor and two 20-inch models with a 1.8GHz G5 processor, reliable sources have told Think Secret. In addition, the new models will be housed in an all-in-one body with the motherboard and components attached to the back of the display,” Think Secret reports. “Sources told Think Secret that the new iMac design is ‘impressive” and ‘an eye catcher.’ The new unit will not have a display with adjustable neck as found on the current iMacs, but will feature an all-in-one design with the logic board, optical drive and other components housed on the back of the flat-panel display.”

Jackson – I, too, thank you for that link. Couldn’t be more truth that I’ve ever read and never again will I read these forum posts (or any others) quite the same way. Not to mean I won’t ever again participate in the fun and frivolity and vitriol from time to time. It’s just that I’ll just be able to do it with the slightest hint of irony that I’m participating in a truly bizarre “life-cycle” that surrounds Apple’s products. What fun, indeed!

Which Thurrott claims are sufficient for all his uses (note: he’s touting his Doom3 expertise these days.. on a $400 USD computer? Yeah right)
admittedly a cheap shot:

if we are talking all in one, slim display- then we aren’t to far away from a g5 powerbook-
yours drooling,
paul-
Oh shit, another G5 PowerBook lemming.
If I could hang it on the wall behind my desk and free up all that space, it’d almost be worth losing the RAM.
