The massive price drop, increased RAM capacity, and increase in processor speed has made me weary of buying a new iMac due to the seemingly similar specs and prices.
It doesnt seem like anyone saw this macbook overhaul coming... but what about iMacs? Hasnt it been a while since they have seen anything new?
Edit: errr... nevermind, apparently there was a 2009 update I missed?

Im wondering this too. 4850 mobility is trash for a desktop system.
-
^is it?I thought it is quite fast...actually,it is fastest GPU used in any AIO
-
It's fast enough for the casual gamer like me (Though i don't own an imac
)
-
^it is fast enough for any game!
-
Very doubtful there'll be any changes to the desktops for a while. -
it does not matter whether you have 2.4 or 24" display-it is resolution that matters! If you check benchmarks on macrumors,4850 is enough to play crysis on high 1920x1200!
-
Just wait for Crysis 2. =P -
Well,sorry for misunderstanding... But in my defense,when you said 24",I thought you meant the size...cos you can have 1920x1200 on 15" now...ok,anyway,crysis was one of worst optimized games in history,so I hope that second one will be better!
-
Also, the desktop lines aren't refreshed as often as the laptops... they aren't as important now. And they're not stuck in an interim-refresh - they're out there like they're supposed to be. -
well,they are quite up to date now...all they need is quad core,which will come with intels new architecture and LED screens!
P.S. don't even say GTA 4...it was pathetic-I had same 10-15 FPS on 640x480 and 1920x1200
So... are we expecting anything new with iMacs any time soon?
