Apple quashes rumours of Mac Mini and iMac

Apple has debunked the rumour mill's latest obsession, declaring that no new Macs will be released before Christmas.

Reports surfaced yesterday that Apple was getting ready to release an updated version of the iMac and the Mac Mini next week. But in a rare move to dampen the speculation regarding the new products, a company representative told Macworld, "Our holiday lineup is set."

As Macworld's Jim Dalrymple points out, the iMac and Mac Mini seem overdue for a hardware update, making it quite plausible that new versions would be along some time soon. But Apple appears to be saving those updates for a later date, perhaps at the annual Macworld conference in January.

Apple did recently release new MacBooks and MacBook Pros to bolster the Mac lineup heading into the holiday season, which is generally the busiest time of the year for the computer industry.
