Amplified by immaturity, why do you refuse to research something questionable that someone posts, or refuse to respect even reasonable assumptions?
First of all, there have been previous "rumors" of Apple not participating at MWSF, as Ms. V posted earlier in the thread.
Second of all, the basis of this particular internet site/community is a discussion of news and rumors with Apple and with regard to Macs. There is no rule here, saying that a registered user may not make reasonable assumptions for possible updates (in this case, to Apple's monitor line), which, by the way, would be considered a "rumor". If you need to, check the FAQs of MacRumors and point out any such rule to me.
I support his possible specs for Apple monitors
>$399 15"
>$ 599 17"
>$ 799 17" wide screen
>$ 1099 19"
>$ 1499 22"
>$ 2499 23"HDTV
>$ 3499 25" HDTV (probably wont happen)
given that (A) there is a price drop in monitors, and (B) echoing the possibility of a stand alone 17 inch wide screen and a stand alone 25 inch cinema display.
I think (A) would be more likely, because there have been reports of stabilizing LCD prices, instead of the sky high demand many people had to face. My father would have had to pay $10000 for a 40" something Plasma screen. Now, he can get one for under $4000. I'm using this as an example to amplify my point.
(B) emphasizes the possibility of each of these happening, thus,
rumors.
Shrek, there have been multiple reports, stating that Apple would not continue to introduce new Apple products (iBook/Mac, PowerBook/Mac) at Apple Expos. So keep dreaming.
TMJ1974, not everything you read, especially rumor/news reports from certain sites, are accurate. Some sites report news at some accuracy X, and another reports rumors at accuracy Y. If X is greater than Y, do you think you've been trusting too many sites with a Y accuracy?
