According to Kaufan Bros. analyst Shaw Wu, Quad-core iMacs are a likely upgrade. Apart from this, dual-core processors will also be used to create a better tier for the iMac line.

In his note to clients today, Wu now claims to be hearing from his sources “that both types of processors will likely be used,” which would “makes sense as this helps Apple create better tiers within the iMac family, utilizing quad-core for the high-end, and dual-core for mid-range and low-end.”

iMac stocks have started to dwindle and Apple has in fact advised it’s retail partners of the potential shortage of iMacs in the coming weeks. This usually signals a refresh in the lineup. As Apple is just trying to dispose of existing inventory to make way for the new ones to come in.

I’m looking forward to more powerful iMacs. Bring ‘em on!
