Some Mac Rumors
Tuesday, March 20, 2007
Appleinsider claims that the next version of Apple's iMac will showcase "striking new industrial designs aimed at leaving both competitors and onlookers smitten.
"The new designs are said to be sleeker and slimmer than the current iMac designs, however, the new looks may only be deployed on the 20" and 24" models, leaving the 17" model's future uncertain.
The rumor site has no solid timeframe for the release of the new iMacs, but our Buyer's Guide suggests the iMac is overdue for an update, with the last update being delivered in September 2006.
This would represent the 4th major iMac design revision since its introduction. (Original, iMac G4, Current)

I have been thinking of what the "Industrial Design" could look like. We have a ton of lofts going up all around the metro Detroit area and it leads me to think the cases could have an exposed or steel look to them. Now that Apple has made white cool its now time to mix it up and go for a new color. The Mac Pro towers are industrial looking but those have been around for 3 years so it has to be something new. Maybe a mix of brick and steel will be the new iMacs and the transparent styling of the old eMacs could be back. Or maybe I am completely off and have no clue. I think its the latter and will have to wait for some leaked photos to surface.
