"I've purchased a cable tester and identifier to be sure that what I've bought"

What exact cable tester do you use and own?

 Go to the Apple refurb store and look how many pages and pages there are of refurb 24" iMacs.

I had to fact check you, since you are making statements that are not true. That "M1 Macs are only good for the low end", when the M1 Macs factually run circles, around Intel Macs.

AND,
for more proof of your slanted remarks, I just went to the Apple refurb store and counted how many M1 Macs AND Intel Macs were factually in the Apple refurb store as of 10:56 PM EST, on Jan. 6, 2022.        Results:   (136) Intel Macs;  (50) M1 Macs.    Seems like almost 3 time more Buyers remorse, when going with Intel, to then learn, that the M1 Macs, blow those Intel Macs away !!

MetaVERSE? Poetry? Limerick?

There once was a company called Meta
Who wanted to get all your data.
Plus that of your mothers,
And sisters and brothers,
Then sell it to every "dictata".

Seriously Asking?!

What can be the business model, when a company has 365,000,000 Monthly users,  ....And LOSES Money !!

Think about it.   ....ANY Company with that many users, would have figured out by now that, "Keep Monthly Costs Less than Monthly Revenue", ...and Voilá !!     ....Profitability.

Has to be some crap-ass management, because there cannot be any other explanation.
