  • Apple debuts colorful 24-inch iMac with M1, upgraded camera and audio

    Headphone jack is located on the side on the desktop computer???? Who wants speaker cable dangling from the side all the time going to external powered speakers, instead of neatly tucked behind the screen and out of sight?
    the screen is too thin to place a headphone jack component from the back.. even though the plug itself is 3.5mm..the jack component is usually 12-14mm deep...the screen's depth is only 11.5mm.

    This is pretty much what was expected -- an M1-based replacement for the low-end iMac (formerly 21"). 

    It's not for me, but neither was the 21" (I'm a 27" iMac kind of guy). 

    It's pretty amazing that essentially one chip is used for MBA, MBP13, Mac mini, and the low-end iMac. How many different Intel chips models and GPU combos used to span those devices? And they're using the M1 in the iPad Pro. Economies of scale FTW. 
    They can do that because the M1 chip is the low energy, low thermal chip in the first Place.

    I’m expecting the rumored M1X Chip with a a couple extra Cores to show up in a Bigger IMac at either 27 or 30 inches.

    I wish hat they would have a 32 GB Ram option though.
    i think the m1 maxes out at 16gb..if apple felt it could handle 32gb, the option would be there.  
    i'm sure their pro silicon model will satisfy many..16-24-32 core with a max of 128gbRAM. i can totally see that coming either in june or october.
