Sorry, but this just doesn't ring true to me.

I am going to have to say "nah" to this one, elevator or not. By the look of the picture it is just TOO thin. It looks more like a PS'd ACD monitor to me.

I'm just sayin'.

The guy just took an ACD, slapped "iMac" in the back, a few ports, isight and the leopard background. And then added some blurriness to hide the PS signs.

Also looking at the EXIF data proves telling... "Adobe Photoshop CS2"

I call BS just for the simple fact that Apple isn't going to use an OS that's coming out in 3 months in advertising materials for a computer that's possibly coming out in a week. It would confuse people ("But the ad has the shiny transparent menu bar!") and it would possibly be false advertising.

While these pictures are obviously fake, I could see them if Leopard is coming out in the very beggining of October, anouncing an iMac and delaying its shipping until Leopard is out, they have had almost that long of delays shipping new computers before, and if that was true it wouldn't make sense for them to use an OS that will not be on it to advertise it.

i think it's fake.

supposedly the redesign is going to be something we've never seen. this is just an ACD.

also, where would the fans be? theres a vent at the top in the back of all the imacs now

they madi it so that it doesn't have a fan and if you don't want the computer to overheat, then you have to buy the new iFan and have it blowing on the back of the computer.

I love it! All these mock ups are all influenced upon the current models of the time! I wish someone would have the foresight to think ahead and imagine what Apple 'could' be thinking, rather than pretty much basing a design on today's hardware.

Apparently, this new rumoured new iMac design is supposed to be something completely different that is gonna blow people's socks off!

Doesn't this supposed leaked imac just look like a cinema display to you guys anyway?

Maybe Photoshop was used to put the two pictures in 1. We don't know the EXIF data of each photo. I am not saying it's real - just another point of view.
Good point. Still... Why is it floating in a black void?
