Rumors suggest Apple may have pulled Blu-ray from the new iMac just before production, according to AppleInsider.
More specifically, people close to the Cupertino-based company have picked up on chatter suggesting that earlier plans to offer Blu-ray technology on the new all-in-one desktops may have been pulled back just before the systems went into product last month.
The site has also learned that Intel's recently released Core i7 'Clarksfield' quad-core mobile processors may find their way into the new iMac line in some capacity.

Thats sad, I would rather have Blu-Ray than a Quad Core on a iMac, if you want a Quad Core processor then buy a Mac Pro. Stop jerkin us around Apple. I cant watch any new movies I buy any more since I only buy Blu-Ray get with the times.

really? I'd much prefer to have a quad core iMac than a BluRay drive, i'm even doubting my decision to buy a MBP if that's true.
