Just entry level-ish stuff on this generation. yeah I feel like jumping on the M1 train is the kind of thing that would only make sense to have done immediately, or waiting until the next round of bumps comes out

Thoughts: iPad: Not worth an upgrade from the older models unless you have dying hardware or a need for the nicer screen for some reason. iMac: Wait until the M1X AppleTV: Buy it just for the new remote and probably less-jank Wi-Fi AirTag: Eh, get it if you want? I need more info on how long the battery lasts.

Apple, ffs just hand Bethesda/MS some money if y’all can make nice enough to have them at the M1 event y’all can hand them a bil and get some established titles given the Switch treatment

So they're offering colors to distract you from the fact that they hooked a macbook up to a 24 inch display? Why even bother?

These new colored iMacs are making me want to wait until Apple redesigns the MacBook Air the same way. I wonder how long that will be?

I'll get the new ATV as soon as I can to replace my creaky HD, kinda glad I'm not tempted by the iMacs really since I already got an M1 Air.

so, unless I am missing something...you can't upgrade the iMac to 16g of ram? That can't be right. They even have a section on the bottom of the page telling you about choosing the right amount of ram. Maybe you can't do it until the pre order goes live?

DoomTrainPhD posted:Which is the base model? The 27inch was the big boy. the 21” came with four, and later six core CPUs for a while. The last few could also be optioned with AMD dGPUs of middling performance. Way less “guts of a MacBook Air in an iMac” and more “something between a 13” MacBook Pro and a 16” MBP/27” iMac”

Dumb question from someone outside of the Apple ecosystem: My family member has the current version of Apple TV 4K. They hate the remote. Do you think this newly announced remote will be backwards compatible?
