Rumors have it that Apple and Samsung just teamed up to bring you the new 82" iMac. This will be the largest display on a desktop computer. The source can't confirm it yet, but they say Apple will aggressively price this new iMac at 16,999$ USD.

It creates a big gap in the lineup, but Apple bets that it will be very popular ith pr0n users and it expects to get ROI within the fisrts 4 months of shipping.

The new iMac will be demo'ed at next week "It's showtime!" media event.

Oh yeah? I'm going to build my own 28" iMac - with blackjack and hookers.
