DigiTimes has a new scoop on the next-generation line of iMacs, reporting that PC ODM Quanta Computer and assembler Foxconn Technology are expected to see revenue boosts thanks to the launch of Apple's new iMacs.

Set to launch this June with Ivy Bridge processors from Intel, “the new iMac is rumored to feature an anti-glare display,” according to the publication citing a Chinese-language Economic Daily News (EDN) report which, itself, makes reference to sources from the upstream supply chain.

The same Chinese newspaper also said that Apple was set to launch updated MacBook Pro notebooks as well. The laptops will also feature Ivy Bridge processors.

The consumer-ready units will arrive at the end of the second quarter, said the paper. Numerous sources have indicated in the past few months that Apple will transition the MacBook Pro to a new design, akin to the MacBook Air.
