    Hi. I use a Late 2012 iMac at work, which I love because of the screen, but has admittedly lagged behind.

    iMac 24” — Wait for M2/M3 or Buy Now?

    I’ve been waiting for Apple to announce a 24” iMac with M2 chip for over a year now. Reading that this may not happen until late-2023, early-2024, or later. I may just get the current model rather than wait another 8+ months. Thoughts?

    Apple must love choppy/stuttery/jittery visuals

    Something has bugged me ever since I took the plunge on an iMac... $1900 M1 iMac - constant jitters, stutters, and animations played back at an ugly low framerate. Not intense animations, mind you, simple things like scrolling and window re-sizing. Constant sluggish input response and lag. A...
