If you ve already placed your order, or have been intending to place an
order for Apple s first ever Quad Core iMac sometime soon, you ll be
pleased to know Apple are now stating that their Core i5 iMacs are now
�prepared for shipping " though, as yet, no actual specific shipping
date has been provided.
Assumedly set to commence shipping as of this week according to numerous
reports, the 27 � iMac, which boasts a 2560 x 1440 resolution display,
is offered with a choice of 2.66GHz Core i5 or 2.8GHz Core i7
processors, between 4GB and 8GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM, either 1TB or 2TB
capacity SATA HDD with pricing starting from just shy of $2,000.
Interestingly, whilst confirming that the new Quad Core iMac is
�prepared for shipping Apple have also acted to advise that those
ordering (specifically the 27 �) new Core 2 Duo iMac are now facing a
delay in shipping ranging between seven to ten business days, we re
assuming due to demand somewhat outstripping supply (though Apple have
not offered an official reason for the delayed shipments).
