Terra byte? Huh? Is that a Mac rumour site or something. Or are they talking Macs with 1 TB hard drives? Cuz if the latter, you can already get 1 TB hard drives in iMacs.

Anyways, while I do believe the iMac will be updated soon, it's not because some random Apple sales drone said so.

I predict the new 40" iMacs with 4 TB of storage, standard.

$1,000.

I don't think that Apple Store employees have any more insight about things like this then we do. Unless stock dries up or something...

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

like I mention I wasn't there. so I'm just repeating second hand info. this will be his first Mac, so if they do come out with something tomorrow, then I hope it's notable.

That is an absolutely 100% correct statement, and if that employee's manager had found out about him saying that, he would have been in some deep doodoo.
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?
