The predictions are based on product life-cycle history and other mojo. Mactactic has wisely included the following disclaimer: "No responsibility is taken for the accuracy of any data on this website." + +Predicting anything Mac related is somewhat akin to bending metal spoons, but if nothing else the site is a quick way to see how long a particular piece of Mac hardware has been on the market. + +Right now the hardware listings are somewhat incomplete, the basic computers are there, but the only iPod listed is the 5G video. + +Really the only good rule of thumb for buying new Mac hardware is don't do it at Christmas. Apple's January Macworld conference almost always sees the introduction of some kind of new hardware and with my Murphy's law luck it's inevitably whatever I bought during the holiday season. + +If you really trust Mactactic there's even a dashboard widget you can download. Mactactic gets bonus points for being built with Django.
