“We are holding onto the hope that there will be other product announcements this fall,” said Jerry Zigmont, owner of MacWorks, a Conn.-based Apple consultant that focuses on Mac desktops and notebooks. “Some of these [Mac] products are in desperate need of a refresh.”

“For a lot of business users, that type of product doesn’t make sense for them,” he said.

Ultimately, “the refresh times between [Mac] products are just too slow,” he said.”
