Worldwide shortage with new iMac 27-inch i5 and i7
What is i5 or i7 mean yo you ?
They’re the product codes for Intel Quad Core 2.66 GHz and 2.8 GHz computer processors.
It just happens to be used by Apple in their current models of iMac 27-inch. It’s a worldwide shortage of these models and some of the back orders are dated as far back as October and November, 2009 for the resellers. But the shortage is only applies to the Apple Resellers, it doesn’t apply to Apple’s own Apple Store. You can walk in any of the Apple Stores and come out with the worldwide shortage product without any problems.
iMac 27-inch i5 and i7
What it mean for the resellers ? Does it mean Apple is no longer needing the resellers to sell their products ? Does it mean the end of the road for all these Apple resellers who has supported the Mac users in the past, especially during later part of 90s when Apple was in trouble ?
We don’t know yet at his stage, what is Apple’s policies about their channel partners – Apple resellers.
But we do know that there is a shortage of i5/i7 iMac 27-inch worldwide. You can’t buy them from any of the resellers without extended delay, at least in Australia. But you can walk in any of the Apple Stores and pick one up (i5) straight away.

Not anymore you cannot. All Sydney stores ran out of stock!!!!
You may be right. But I personally picked up 2 x iMac 27″ i5 this afternoon 01/02/2010 from Chatswood Store.. I probably bought the last two that they have then. But new stocks are arriving in 2 weeks time and probably much quicker for Apple Stores.
