Apple just confirmed another streaming event for October 30 at, wait for it, 8PM ET. Tis the spooky season, so why not hold a presentation at night? The tagline for the event is \u201cScary Fast\u201d so it certainly sounds like there will be some hardware announcements. We already had the big iPhone 15 event,<\/ins><\/a> so that leaves the company\u2019s desktop and laptop computers.<\/p>\n

To that end, it\u2019s been a surprisingly long time since there\u2019s been a new iMac. Analyst Mark Gurman suggested that this event will feature a refresh of the aging iMac line,<\/ins><\/a> and his track record is pretty good when it comes to Apple. Gurman also suggested that it\u2019s likely we\u2019ll see an update to the MacBook Pro.<\/p>\n

This analysis is based on current retail supplies and shipping dates for forthcoming models, with retail stores noting they have short supply of the current iMacs and the 13-inch MacBook Pro. The colorful 24-inch M1 iMac came out all the way back in April 2021,<\/ins><\/a> which is a lifetime in tech circles, and hasn\u2019t been updated since. The MacBook Pro M2 is newer, releasing in 2022, but still due for an upgrade.<\/p>\n

With that said, there are also rumors that the event will reveal the followup chip, the M3. It\u2019s also possible we\u2019ll get an iPad reveal, as the company\u2019s flagship tablet<\/ins><\/a> is also due for a refresh.<\/p>\n

In the past, Apple has typically reserved its October press event for computers, which is another mark in the \u201cnew iMac\u201d column. In any event, we don\u2019t have that long to wait, as October 30 is just around the corner. Here\u2019s hoping Tim Cook will be dressed as a mummy or Barbenheimer or something.<\/p>\n
