Apple’s rumored March 24th event for Snow Leopard?

by Justin Horn on Mar 3rd, 2009 @ 1:30 pm

The rumors over the weekend discussing a March 24th Apple event for new iMacs, Minis, and Pros are now obviously not true with the release of these new Macs today. I’m not surprised that the new Macs came out with little fanfare from Apple as they are just hardware bumps. Lately it looks like Apple only throws events for major product updates, like the move to a full aluminum unibody MacBook line, which makes a lot of sense.

So even though this rumored March 24th event won’t be for the new Macs, I haven’t totally thrown out the rumor. I now believe if this event does happen it will cover the release Snow Leopard. This fits with Apple’s recent event history as Snow Leopard is going to be a big deal for Apple just as Windows 7 will be for Microsoft. There have been numerous reports of Apple putting the final touches on Snow Leopard the last few months. Also, the latest rumors still point to a first half of 2009 release…late March seems to fit perfect with those rumors.
