The next iMac (now the NEXT next iMac)

[Mgkwho]

Wait...the new keyboards have the usb ports on them? I didn't know... (I don't have a desktop).

I think Apple keyboards have had USB on them for a long time.

 

[holamiamigos]

they'll go back to a design that worked.. such as the ipod mini/nano 2d

 

[Mgkwho]

Well I know the old iMac keyboards had em, but I just didn't know newer ones did. You can't really tell on the images online. Or at least I can't.

I would like something like this (I haven't quite spent the time that was probably put into that impressive earlier design, but anyway...):



The world's first water-powered holographic computer! That cable at the right is a water-line. Keyboard and mouse would be replaced by a software keyboard (a la iPhone, except in 3 dimensions) and you could grab windows, hit buttons, screw documents up in your hands to trash them...

perhaps it will look like this...

 

[Mgkwho]

Nice, did you make that? I haven't seen that mock-up before.

[Mgkwho]

Awesome.

thx. i like it too, i think it's a little bit "smarter" than the current imac, isn't it?

 

[dllavaneras]

I'm really hoping for a redesign. I'm saving up to buy lots of tech this summer, so the more upgrades the better

It looks more elegant with that looong neck. To me my current one just seems butch.

 

[Mgkwho]

It also sort of elegantly brings back the framing of the panel in the 2G-lamp design.

I don't think I'm alone to wait to buy an iMac now, and get the new design in the summer..

It "should" come...... And Apple doesn't seem to let anyone down with their latest designs. Let's hope they continue to work that way with the iMac.

Gives us time to build up the economy, too lol

Yes, I like it. But the kicker is, how thick is it?

 

[nurfen]

Yes, I like it. But the kicker is, how thick is it?

Well, I'd rather have a thick/deep iMac than that white area below the present iMac...

Exactly what I was thinking! Excellent mock-up
oooh apple smilie!

The chin, as it has been dubbed, is the only place to view the apple logo effectively. Why else would Ive put it there _

 

[Mgkwho]

Yes, I like it. But the kicker is, how thick is it?

five feet.

[animenick65]

Oooo I like that design. I think thats much smarter. I hate the chin as it is now. I mean isn't the best computer one that you can't see? Its so smart to take up the real estate thats behind the screen.

 

[Chris Bangle]

The apple on the stand should be backlit and glow white..... But i'd buy it as it is....

 

[zephead]

five feet.

[Cybergypsy]

G4's rule......the new ones are not my style...

 

[Gosh]

perhaps it will look like this...

Where's the computer? Ah or course it's a Mac mini stuck on the rear!

Huff, looks like a chinless wonder!

You should drop in to the MacBook/Pro forum and check-out the complaints raised about the heat from compacting technology in ever smaller spaces!

Chin=win!

 

[Mgkwho]

Ha, I'd hope it'd be a little more powerful than a mini.
