Apple will announce new Mac models this month, Bloomberg‘s Mark Gurman reports.
In the latest edition of his “Power On” newsletter, Gurman said that Apple is “planning a Mac-centered product launch around the end of this month” that could see the the release of an updated 24-inch iMac model.
Gurman noted that Apple retail stores are now in short supply of the iMac, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pro, and many configurations now will not arrive until mid-November, in what he believes is “a clear sign that something is about to happen.”
Gurman believes that the Mac announcement will take place on Monday, October 30 or Tuesday, October 31.
