“Apple’s next iMac revision is currently tracking for release in August,” Think Secret reports.
“The iMac, which will be based on similar internals as the recent MacBook Pro revision, will sport a brushed aluminum enclosure and will measure just two inches thick,” Think Secret reports.
“The upcoming iMac revision will debut only in 20- and 24-inch varieties, with 17-inch model set to disappear. Speeds will top out at 2.4GHz [Santa Rosa],” Think Secret reports.

heard this one before. hope its true!
So, the new iMac is a one-piece MacBook Pro with a foot?
Well, if Think Secret is reporting it it must be true. /sarcasm
“Just two inches”?? My current iMac is 1 and 1/2 inches thick. What gives?
Basically. Or a slightly thicker Cinema Display.
HOT!
Maybe literally.
I’ll bet the ne iMacs match the look and feel of he iPhone…
With such a big shift towards laptops it is not surprising that Apple are taking longer to update their desktops.
The iMacs could eventually evolve into smart HD TVs. The size of the screens could easily increase to 30 inches or more. With the front row or AppleTV interface it could be a perfect TV for the bedroom, whilst providing for access to the internet as well as home office needs.
I’m sure Apple are already thinking 2-3 steps ahead. Just like a good chess player.
So in other words, it will look just like a Cinema Display….
Cool. But now I’m expecting some crazily radical Macs that redefine the entire computing experience based on the technology in iPhone. *sigh* I hope soon.
Oh yeah, like a 30″ monitor is so usable. Do you like playing “find the mouse pointer” or something?
LOL!
I cant see Apple making this if its thicker than the current Imac.
Apple is about reducing size not increasing it.
If they are doing an Imac update it will be thinner and certainly not brushes metal as white is the consumer colour for Apple’s hardware, wheras the metal finish is for its pro line of machines.
Multi-touch display?
the original imac G5 was less than 2 inches thick?
Who let the Lemmings losse? who! who! who! WHO!?
Actually that should have been:- Who let the Gnu’s out? who! who! who! WHO!
Poor Lemmings, they don’t even exist!
Maybe they’ve just reduced the space underneath the display and added it to the back for a more visually pleasing effect..
I always thought that white space below the display threw the symmetry off a bit.
God what a stupid rumor…JUST two inches thick!
They didn’t even bother to measure a current iMac to see they are thinner than that now.
Funny.
Are you people seriously blogging on a rumour?
Would you like some Camel’s Milk?
Would you like to know what it will do to your exhaust pipe?
Rip your silencer to shred’s ha! ha! haaa!!!! Now stop this tomfoolery and get us some srious news MDN!
Any touch screen is a bad idea for a desktop computer. You would very soon tire of moving your arm and hand a couple feet for eveything you click on as opposed to moving a mouse a fraction of an inch.
It’s a very good idea for an iphone. A very bad idea for a desktop. There is a difference.
@ Bob Loblaw You got your perspectives wrong! you are supposed to use your toes on the touch screen! any fool could spot that a mile off!
Would you like some Camel’s Milk?
If this thing is nothing more than a Santa Rosa non-white iMac I’m going to be disappointed.
If Apple won’t build a mini-tower, so be it, but then it’s time the iMac at least allow easy exchange of the video card, and a second hard drive bay. An overhaul of the form factor is the time to add these goodies.
@ everyone’s comments:
That’s what she said!
Here’s an idea – why not make the iMac and Cinema Display one and the same product – all Apple needs to do is add a DVI input to the 20″ and 24″ iMacs. Viola!
