New Macs, something else tomorrow?

But then again, ours is not to judge: the rumors say new mice and some sort of multitouch trackpad, so that's what we're passing on to you. Believe it or not, as you will. We'll of course be up and refreshing Apple's store constantly here at TUAW -- if anything new shows up there, you'll see it here ASAP.

Engadget is the latest to report a rumor that's been circulating for months: tomorrow may be the day that we finally see those new Macs...

Almost exactly right, except for the Mac Mini with Snow Leopard server, which is now out.

October 20 2009 at 9:41 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyAgreed, plus Apple is using the free advertising provided by all the major tech blogs, once the techies know they spread it to their friends by word of mouth, and then everyone is checking them out.
Why spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on an event, when you can just ship them to stores, update the website and let the blogs have a field day with it.
Not doing Macworld keynotes doesn't meant Apple no longer announces stuff at events, just that they're no longer tied to _someone else's_ scehedule for events. Recall their big iPod event last month. Apple still has events to announce stuff, just that they're set for whenever they happen to have something to announce.

October 20 2009 at 8:15 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyThis piece was posted at at 10:00PM on Monday Oct 19th 2009. Apple usually updates on Tuesdays. I think they're still sleeping in Cupertino.

October 20 2009 at 9:27 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyGive me a Mac Mini with HDMI, and I'd pop for one and the trackpad probably this week.
October 20 2009 at 7:12 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI doubt Apple will put an HDMI port on any Mac. They've settled on the mini-Displayport, and the "current" Mac mini has both a DVI and mini-Displayport. Monoprice.com has good prices on DVI to HDMI and mini-Displayport to HDMI adapters and cables.
October 20 2009 at 9:22 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyApple unfortunately doesn't recognize that MANY folks use the Mini as an HTPC that's cheap, compact, attractive, etc, etc. HDMI is a must for any PC that's going to find its way into my living room. I don't want to dick around with extra audio cables and other mess. Digital audio, and video, from one cable. Two cables total. HDMI, Power. I know Apple has the resource, but unfortunately that's why the AppleTV exists. But some folks like me, want the real deal.
October 20 2009 at 9:58 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyWell lets see as of writing this, www.store.apple.com is still up
New Mac Mini's would be a sweet deal, new mouse huh? Hmmmm have to check that out.
i'm calling ipod touch with a camera due to something i 'heard' a week ago
