New iMacs to sport brushed metal exterior?

When the newest generation iPod Nano’s were released in brushed metal form, I was silently disappointed. Not at the Nano’s off course because they looked awesome, but at Apple’s timing of it, since I just received a black, previous generation Nano (the non brushed metal version) as a gift a week or two before they hit the market.

If you’re planning on getting an iMac anytime soon, you might want to wait a bit to avoid what happened to me. There are rumors that a re-designed iMac might soon surface, implementing the Santa Rosa chipset, with sizes ranging from 20” (the 17” version will be cut off) to ones larger than 24”, with a brushed metal exterior case to boot.

The new iMacs are said to be similarly priced to the current lineup and will be revealed after Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference. Of course these are just rumors at this moment, and if you can wait until after WWDC to see if these are indeed true, then I’d suggest some patience.
