I bought the highest end iMac 27 with 64gb, etc etc, mid year last year for $5k. I knew this was coming. Still hurts. Where is the best place to sell a 1yr old Mac?
There are two different chassis (thus models), one for the stand, one for VESA. Like...wow. https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-mac/imac-vesa
Look how big the escape key is on that keyboard, finally, revenge for the touch bar! I like the direction Apple is going here, I assume they will have higher end iMacs later this year or early next year, and that's what I'll be waiting for. I'd like 27 inches of screen, at least 16GB of ram, but preferably 32, and that's about all I'd ask for. My current workstation is a 2013 27" iMac fully upgraded (fusion drive, 16…

They don't have "a few cm depth", according to the page; it's "11.5 millimeters thin".
That's on them for putting that constraint upon themselves. Not sure why a desktop computer needs to be razor thin, it lives on a desk...
Reducing the size of electronics has always been a goal for consumer hardware companies. Look no further than the memory stick which now supports tens and hundreds of gigabytes on a piece of metal smaller than your finger nail.
It's quite nice having devices that have such small profiles. It's the result of incredible engineering to fit more power in a smaller space for really very few tradeoffs.
Does it only come in a 24" configuration? It'd be nice to upgrade from my 9 year old 27" iMac but I'd hate to have a smaller screen.
Yeah. I really wish they went with 27” if they’re going to pick just one.

I’m going to go ahead and say if you haven’t gotten onboard with USB C by now you’re behind. It’s been half a decade since the USB A port went away on Mac. I know everyone has their legacy peripherals they love but... it’s time to move on.
They're not "legacy peripherals". Mice and keyboards are far from "legacy", and almost all of them come with USB A cables still. Having to add a flaky USB hub to your desktop just to plug in your keyboard is actually ridiculous. It makes sense on a laptop, but these desktops have _a lot_ of surface area on which they could put a few USB-A ports. EDIT: Though, Apple removing the USB-A ports from everything might be wh…

I have a recent vintage Logitech mouse (came out this year). The charging port on the mouse, is USB-C, but the charging cable it came with was still A to C. Same goes for the 2.4Ghz unified dongle it came with.
Logitech MX Master 3 for Mac and MX Anywhere 3 for Mac have USB-C to USB-C charging.
