Any rumours, or typical timing of an update ?
Yes. Updates usually come out shortly AFTER you make a decision and buy a new computer. If you wait for the next edition, you'll never buy anything.
True, but not completely.
A friend of mine wanted to buy a 15" Aluminium. I told him to wait a couple of weeks: well he has now the chance to buy the 1.5 GHz for 300 euros less from a local large computer store or the new 1.67 Ghz for 100 euros less.
So in this case 2 weeks meant 100 euros and a new machine o 300 euros and the same thing.
I have now to buy a replacement desktop for my G5 2 x 2: I am waiting for the new top of the line and then decide for a 2 x 2.5 for a better price or the new one.
It is a matter of fluctuation: or you buy a Mac immediately after it is introduced or at the end of its life: it is only a matter of 6 to 8 months so my suggestion is to wait.
Regarding the iMac I would wait for the new stuff this coming summer, if you can wait.
