I'm with you, but then I looked at prices for the 27" iMacs with the storage I need, and.... Ouch!Colours shmolours for me...I need a new iMac but don’t want to drop from 27 to 24 so will need to hang in there...
Let's not forget the iMac started life as brightly coloured plastic, in 1998. And they stayed plastic until the 2007 revision.Coloured iMacs ?
And no new 27” model, not even in the pro line? Looks like I will be holding on to my black 27” iMac Pro for quite some time yet...
But again Coloured iMacs, (and I know you can still get it in silver) next they will go all the way back and make them in plastic pre 1990...
I love Apple it’s all I have been using for the last two decades but they need Jony Ive back ASAP...
On yes I agree completely.Let's not forget the iMac started life as brightly coloured plastic, in 1998. And they stayed plastic until the 2007 revision.
And while some of Sir Jony's work was groundbreaking, there were a few less-fondly remembered things to come from Apple during his time – the hockey-puck mouse and G4 cube issues are the two most-commonly referenced ones.
If you've got an iMac Pro, you're not the in target market for the new M1 iMac, which is firmly aimed at consumers, not professionals or even 'prosumers'. I suspect a 27in model will follow, and suspect it will be in black, at least as an option. I just hope it doesn't have the white bezels.
That might look like a defence but I don't like the look of them at all. I understand why the 'chin' has to remain but I'm amazed they didn't give it even a vague aesthetic purpose by putting the Apple logo on there. As someone who already has a Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse (both first gen, both working fine), I'll get more bang for less buck by going for an M1 Mac mini and monitor when the time comes to replace my workhorse 2012 mini.
Lol! I feel the same. I love my 2013 iMac with the matching Cinema display, with a HiRise unit so the 2nd display is exactly the same height as the iMac's. Plus I have the 2nd display hooked up via a Kanex switcher so my gaming PC can use that display as well. They are getting tired, but this setup fits me so well it will break my heart when I have to change!I am still on my imac from 2011. I will not be upgrading just yet. I guess the typical response from Apple fans will be "stay in the past then, you old fart".
Fixed that for you.it will break my wallet when I have to change!
Thank you - my Heart AND my wallet!Fixed that for you.
Just get the silver one (as I did)... apart from the missing logo on the 'chin' it's completely inoffensive and iMac-like.I'm a big Apple fan but all I see is Barbie iMac. The back look great as for the front, Hideous!!!!
I hope the iMac pro will look more grown-up
Your ok with the lack of ports? No USB-A?Just get the silver one (as I did)... apart from the missing logo on the 'chin' it's completely inoffensive and iMac-like.
Not a problem for me. I only had two USB-A devices that I wanted to connect:Your ok with the lack of ports? No USB-A?
"Dongle brigade"? I just told you all I needed was a USB-C cable to replace an old USB-A one.My 2011 iMac has 4 USB-A ports, an SD slot, Ethernet port, heck even a CD drive. If I wanted to upgrade to a new imac, it sucks I’ll be getting less. 2 usb-c ports or something like that. Urgh. Frustrates me that Apple has become like this. I really don’t feel it’s fair we have to buy all these adapters and dongles. Just make the damn iMac a few CM thicker and put these ports in! But that’s Apple, take things away and still charge the same. I’m still not quite over the fact they removed the headphone Jack from the iPhone. I’m sure people will just tell me to get over it. But there must be other people out there that are just as disgruntled at Lack of ports on Apple products as I am? I just refuse to join the dongle brigade
None was taken, but I was baffled by your reply.Oh dear. Please don’t take offence. I was not claiming YOU were in the dongle brigade lol. I was just stating I want no part in it. Chill.
