[QUOTE="Smell The Glove, post: 357422, member: 26697"] 'Tis the eternal question. Leopard is due out "Spring," so that's sometime between now and mid-June. [URL="http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#iMac"]http://buyersguide.macrumors.com/#iMac[/URL] - which lists the historical trends of upgrades in each Mac line indicates that updates are due soon. Rumors about an update in the iMacs agree with this, but they're just rumors. Until you hear something from Apple, nothing is certain. I believe I read one rumor that indicated a possible design change to the iMac, but until Apple says it...take it with a grain of salt. Do you NEED a computer right now? Can you stand to wait a month or two or three to see what happens? You could be enjoying the new machine now and upgrade to Leopard later and have a great machine. Or you could start out with Leopard, maybe get a minor upgrade or two here and there, but wait months for it to come to the marketplace. If you can stand to wait a little bit, hold off and read up about Macs, OS X and when the time comes to buy, you'll be much more knowledgeable about things. If you really prefer to go ahead and buy now or need a computer sooner than later, buy it now and don't look back. You'll be quite pleased with your machine, I'm sure. [/QUOTE]
