With Apple Computer's next iMac expected to be unveiled as soon as next week, Mac fan sites are buzzing with speculation over the design.
Photos supposedly taken in a Paris airport elevator hit the Web on Thursday, fueling rumors that the new machine will be similar to Apple's new line of flat-panel displays, with the guts of the computer behind the LCD screen. The photos--which have not been verified as authentic--show a slim all-in-one computer inside the familiar Apple packaging, down to the signature black-and-white box. The pictures showed up about two weeks after Think Secret posted information claiming to describe two new iMac models, one with a 17-inch display and a 1.6GHz G5 processor and another with a 20-inch display and a 1.8GHz G5 processor. The site claims the models will be priced between $1,300 and $2,200 and encased in an all-in-one housing with the motherboard located behind the display.

    Who in their right mind would pay up to $2,200 for that which a dog leaves on front lawns for free?
