Nothing about the revamped Mac desktop line-up tempts my wallet
Don't get me wrong. The announcements aren't bad. More bang for the buck is always good. And the Mac Pro and Mac mini announcements are way overdue. Of all the announcements, I think the Mac Pro is the most significant. But where's a new 30-inch Cinema Display? Also, I still think the mini is overpriced; all things considered, the iMac is a better value.
Speaking of which, I'm a big iMac fan. But there's nothing about the refresh to make me sell my current 24-inch aluminum model and go for a new one. At least nothing that I've noticed so far.
Most disappointing for me: there's no quad-core model. There's no Blu-ray, no HDMI port, and FireWire 400 is gone (though FireWire 800 remains). Of course, this is true of all the updated desktops, not just the iMac.
Plus, I don't think the better prices are enough to overcome the flagging Mac desktop sales. I hope I'm wrong.

I guess I should thank Apple. Following yesterday's announcement regarding revs of its entire desktop line-up, there's nothing to tempt me to spend my money.
