New If it is true
even if they keep the same shape (a lot of air in the case?) it would make for a lighter iMac. It would be more portable. I am thinking more of a square LCD panel hooked into a smooth curve to a smaller box that the guts of the new iMac is stored into.

New Combine the Cube and the iMac
They could use the chimney design of the cube combined with the LCD screen in a iMac form factor. They'd have to find some way to put the power supply back in the case (unlike the Cube) however. And how much heat do LCD screens put off?

New Bingo!
If I were to guess what they are going to do...its combine the cube with the new screen on the ibook. A 14 inch widescreen would be affordable with the new tech and the resolution on those screens is amazing.

Can they hit a price point is the question.

If they can do it, I'd like to see it happen.

New Screen won't be that large...
I'm betting on a wide screen version of the ibook screen. Smaller form factor with the same resolution as the larger screens.

It'll help them get keep lcd costs down for both models.

Wouldn't surprise me at all.

And if it runs OSX...why I might even have to get one :)
