    Do you think the new 30/32" iMac will come with 512gb of storage and 16GB of RAM?

    If you had to bet, would you say that the new iMac that's rumoured to come late this year will start with 16gb or RAM and or 512GB or will Apple stick to 256/8GB? I'm thinking they're going to stick to 256/8GB solely because they make so much money off of the upgrades.

    Does the M1 iMac have built-in HDR 10-bit display/panel?

    Does the new M1 iMac have built-in HDR 10-bit display/panel? I read that the M1 Apple Silicon supports HDR 10-bit output with at least macOS Catalina installed, but I can't find any specifications that explicitly say that the new M1 iMac built-in display/panel is a true HDR 10-bit one. I read on...

    I just recently bout my send M1 Mac, the 2021 iMac. It has two Thunderbolt 3 - USB 4 ports which claim speeds up to 40Gb/s.

    iMac 2012 late - how to eliminate built-in display from system totally?

    Hi Guys, Long story short: bought an iMac 2012 21.5" late with a malfunctioning screen - top 1/3 was displaying OKish, while the rest was all garbled and just showing vertical lines as the mouse pointer moved. It wasn't bothering me as I bought it to be a server, headless music player with an...

    iMac Magic Keyboard 2021

    I recently bought a Mac and it came with the standard keyboard, but I am not a fan of it. Update: It appears like this was fake news, just watched the spring loaded event again and this numeric keyboard with Touch ID wasn't announced :( It's a pretty cool concept though, they should have a...

    Why is Mercury Elite Pro Dual Raid SLOW to respond?

    19,1 iMac, Big Sur 11.4, Mercury Elite Pro Dual RAID (2-6TB hard drives independently configured): My question is why are the RAID drives so slow to awaken when Big Sur queries them especially in the Saving Menu. Maybe 15 sec have to go by before the RAID drives awaken for Big Sur. RAID...

    2021 M1 iMac Bluetooth Issues

    Just got home from the local Apple Store. I'm setting up my new M1 iMac (again) and I am now having issues with Bluetooth. The keyboard is slow to respond unless it is plugged directly in via Lightning <> USB-C. Is anyone else having Bluetooth keyboard issues with their new M1 iMac?

    ¿Es importante 2 puertos adicionales y 1 núcleo de GPU?

    I am between the iMac with 7 cores of GPU with 512GB 16GB, ethernet and Touch ID or iMac with 8 cores of GPU 512GB 16GB, ethernet and Touch ID. I don't use anything that I have to use 4 ports, so is it worth to pay more than 100€ (here in Spain) to have 2 ports more and 1 core of GPU more...

    Thin Bezels on New HP All-in-One

    HP announced its newly redesigned HP Elite … something… 800 All-in-One desktop. Although I’m not interested in buying a windows machine, I can’t help but to admire how thin the bezels are. What do you think of the design vs the
