What’s next for iMac and Mac Pro?
With the recent introduction of long-awaited and -rumored iMacs featuring impressive new 16:9 displays as well as quad core Intel "Lynnfield" processors -- notably the high-end Core i7 model which offers stunning value that crushes virtually all competition, even outpacing the current Mac Pro lineup in many areas while costing half as much with a display included -- many readers have been curious what comes next for the Mac Pro. In this quick overview, soon to be followed by more detailed in-depth reports, we look at the future of both desktops.

Apple announces $1.33/share Q2 profit, shatters Wall Street estimates
The grapevine widely predicted that Apple, Inc. (AAPL)'s second quarter financials would "beat the Street" -- but even some of the more optimistic predictors, Rumors included, were hesitant to suggest numbers quite as enthusiastic as they believed were possible. We need not have been so conservative; sales in every area were ahead of expectations and even insiders (more than a few) have been pleasantly surprised by the performance of Mac and non-Touch iPod sales as these sectors weather a near-perfect storm in the marketplace.

Apple updates iMac, Mini today with nVIDIA chipsets instead of Intel
In a move that surprised even some of our sources and was in several key ways quite (but not entirely) contrary to our published projections as to the iMac's specs, Apple announced new iMacs and Mac Minis today.
iMac and possibly Mini to be updated at March 24th Apple Event
The grapevine has been set on fire this weekend by a breaking rumor, strongly suggesting from multiple quarters/sources that the much awaited "Nehalem" Core i7 iMac, and perhaps also a revamped Mac Mini, will be announced at an Apple Event on the 24th of this month.

Mac OS X 10.5.7 enters beta; broadly seeded to devs
As Rumors has recently reported, the development of Mac OS X 10.5.7 has been proceeding at a slow but steady pace...and in the past few days, has crossed over into "beta" status with a new build that has been seeded to the full developer community.
OS X 10.5.7 nearing beta phase; supports new macs, bug fixes
Despite somewhat less hands-on time that we usually like to have in our first sneak-peeks of developmental Apple software -- particularly system updates -- we are taking a look under the hood of Mac OS X 10.5.7 which is fast approaching the 'beta' phase when it will be seeded to third-party developers for testing & feedback. Interestingly, our examinations turned up not just software dirt, but hints of what's to come for the iMac, Mac Pro & even Macbook Air.

Upcoming new iMacs to go quad-core; what else will be new?
In recent weeks, the grapevine has moved from speculating about new iMacs based on quad-core "Nehalem" Intel Core i7 processors to having near-total confidence in the broad strokes of the rumor, merely seeking confirmation of the details. Well, some of the finer details are still embargoed....but we have been able to confirm once & for all that the new iMacs will indeed have four-core Nehalem processors with the associated improved motherboards.
