I have never been an "if only Steve were still here" guy. UNTIL NOW. From the new iPad updates (with iPad Pro still having camera in wrong place) to this stupid dongle to keep the Pencil 1.0 in play, ...oh my gosh; how awful. I mean, ...would Steve Jobs have overseen such things? Wow: BAD

The Studio makes sense for the iMac Pro users. It is in the same price range and offers big improvements over the last model. iMac 27" users, on the other hand, are out in the cold. Apple has no equivalent option for them. It seems odd that Apple has turned its back on home users who want more than the lowest end product.

Just get the base model studio, and use your own monitor.
It's faster than a 27" iMac, and you're not wedded to buying a new monitor every time you need a CPU refresh.

I am having a hard time believing this based on Apple's history of "What's next." I did not bother to look up the exact years of advancements, but if FEELS like Apple monitor upgrades have gone something like this: 2009: Just buy an HD monitor, and you are good to go for years, mating it with a new PowerMac later. 2013: Oh, now we need Retina monitor with the new Mac, because that what it supports and is the cutting edge. 2016: iMac with 5K Retina. Since Apple is now advertising that their Mac Studio can run multiple 8K videos at the same time, ...um, is the must-have 8K monitor next? Or is it super mini LED things...

Ordered and hope they're "good." Love the Beats Pro with the ear hooks for running. But for yard work, the earhooks are problematic when using ear-covering protection. So, maybe these will both stay in my ear and not hurt with the ear-muff like protection. Having buds stay in my ears have always been a problem. We'll see.
