Anyone ordered the new iMac G5 from apple.com ?

What your Est. Shipping Date ?

Mine is sept. 30th, which is now pretty close, considering I placed my order on august 31st!

Just one more week and it should be near me!

/me is excited.

I already started looking for a new desk too. I can't put that thing on an old ugly desk!

Anybody else picked one up at a local Apple store ?

The ones nearby don't have any yet...

One would have expected shots & benchmarks on Neowin by now. :) Almost 10 days after they started shipping...

Lucky asses... I dcant stand Macs... I love teh sleek iMac look tho... I'd like to find a way to keep some parts like case and monitor and install Debian on it (including Winblows)

If you can't stand Macs then why are you posting on the Mac section of Neowin :rofl: go troll someplace else please.

Mouton congratulations on the iMac :D

i love it how they call the delay "unexpected". they clearly expect the delays, because it happens with every mac product that ever comes out (bar the cube and newton :p )

if the dude who dont like macs just installs linux on the mac he wouldnt know it was a mac ( well... yae know ). i have a friend who buys a mac and installs linux on it.

It doesn't matter what OS is on the computer, it will always be a Macintosh

Man...went into compusa today. Saw the new lcd screens (sweet mother those things rock)...saw the new imacs...17" to be exact, they are even uglier in person than they are in pics. IMHO

f***ers... they changed the est. shipping date without notifying me this time!

Est. Ship

On or before 10/13/2004

The same happened to me when I bought my AirPort Express. Est. Shipment was changed from 3 days too 5 weeks!

I guess it's a question of personnal preferences...

Most people think it's good looking.

Anyone saw numbers on iMac G4 vs iMac G5 sales ?

Do they sell better / as much / less ..?

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
