DisplayPort 2.0 was announced last year. It supports up to 16K screens using either a USB-C port or standard DP connectors.

There is little doubt that Apple wont include something newly released in a product. The normal way is last years tech. Unfortunately.
If these are really released this week I might have to reconsider a few things. I just set up an old MacBook Pro as a Plex Server and upgraded my wife's iMac with an internal SSD to get another year out of it. I didn't think new iMacs would be released before the autumn since we hadn't been hearing that much and it seemed like Covid may have delayed them.
The 2017 iMac may be relegated to Plex Server earlier than planned, poor thing.

Hopefully tomorrows the day for it, 7 days after the Macbook Pro, that would be neat
Well, it is 3pm on Monday where I am. I'm just waiting for the rest of the world to catch up.
Oh, we're not getting exited about the announcement, or anything remotely sensible like that. We are excited about the rumour of a leak that may or may not happen today.....
MBP 13 was announced before lunch last week as I recall it - European time. I am here and waiting...
A change in form does not really need a keynote slot in WWDC unless there are new hardware to utilise for developers that is not covered by MP, and I doubt that. iPP got the LiDAR scanner and we got the iPhone SE completely without keynotes. MBP 13 was not really new, was it? Barely noticeable upgrades and that new keyboard of course but really not much to talk about from a WWDC perspective. Each of these products are larger or mort important than the iMac most likely. The iMP and MP were announced on WWDC with the reason to give developers a hint up what the Mac platform can do and that Apple want to provide such a computer. iMac, MBP etc are obvious for everybody and their existence is not questioned. Pencil support (not touch) support to iMac and an ARM Mac would be something that fits WWDC. A new design to package an stale update from Intel and AMD should be completely uninteresting for WWDC.
How would you distinguish between live streaming and prerecorded video without an audience that gives feedback. No, it can be released today without much fanfare from Apples side- the tech press will do the marketing for free and everything will be fine.
I hope to place an order later today if it takes my fancy.

It's not happening today. And when they do it's probably going to just be a spec bump :/
Not true at all. IMP got Vega even before PCs, MBP has RDNA cards that nobody else had. Intel used to give Apple priority for their new CPUs. Apple has been among the first to include TB2&TB3. First to build a multitouch smartphone, first to include Lidar. Many times in the past Macs have been leading in performance when they came out, offering the best tech available.

BTW, Apple introduced the new iPad in April, the new MBP in May: my guess is that nothing is going to happen before June.

You may well be right on a June refresh as the Mac Mini was updated in March, so hitting one a month for the last few months.
Facts. Guy above said leak was coming yesterday, nothing. Then they're talking about iMac 27" ship dates have slipped. If you look at some of the other products like the new iPad Pro they also have 2 week delivery times.
