Apple updated its iMacs today with a new processor from Intel that's not supposed to be available for another 45 days yet. It's not the first time Intel gave Steve Jobs first dibs. A year ago, new iMacs came out with an Intel 3.0-GHz quad-core processor that HP and Dell had to wait on.

Regarding the quad-core 3GHz Intel processor, that was a Xeon in a Mac Pro, not an iMac.
I'm sure all this hardware has been thoroughly tested too.
I think I'll wait a while.
It's an old overclocked processor, not a new one. Read engadget.
