New iMacs here already !!!

Yes, there has had been speculation that apple would launch a new 23″ iMac on 12th September, when it will hold a special event. But whoa! They are already here …. Meet the iMac family , and it goes al the way up to 24″, Not to mention it has Core 2 duo on the inside now.

Now these new Mac are nice, screaming fast and beautiful but is there some underlying strategy, an ulterior motive ?

It just seems to me that apple is now going full steam at the media centre market. If you can buy a 24″ computer that works out of the box and then just plonk it in your dorm room, instant computer/TV/media centre.

Now, for the more speculative part. If apple has a special event coming up just next week, then why coudnt this announcement wait. Does it mean that the new announcements are going to be so big that Mr. Jobs feels the new iMac, a 24″ one at that, is less important. Apple has even upgraded all its mac mini’s without a word.

A a good friend, I’ll leave you drooling over what’s next: here’s the invitation card sent to the media, for the special event on September 12th.
