I bought the 4 port iMac because my other one was not working well and it was beyond fixing.
Anyway, I was trying to use the new one when my daughter called and I spoke to her from the computer. that never happened before, I looked up why and it was pleasant. So that is a keeper.
Curious, I don't see any air vents on this model. Are there ?
Next surprise, I decided it was time to plug stuff in. The external drive fine, but when I went to put in the USB from the desk printer, it won't fit. I see 4 ports, 2 thunderbolt and 2 USB-C. So I have coming from Amazon, two USB-C to USB adapters. I opted for the more expensive Apple. We have an Apple store, but too lazy to drive out there. It is a way way out there location, almost a county over. I hope that helps.
I did have to order a new color laser as the one I am replacing doesn't show up on the printer list since we got Fiber installed. This one has Airprint and I hope that when it is on the new network , we can access it from my computer and my wife's Macbook Air. Otherwise, she is going to need to get a PC laptop which can see the printer. She is a teacher and of course she has to be able to print stuff.
I like the finger touch button on the keyboard, but wish Apple would have had the larger keyboard with the keypad with that option. Maybe someone will decide it might sell. I have big hands so the smaller board is a something to get working.
Last, I notice a faint smell with the new one. I am guessing it is new components settling in. Some how as I aged, my sense of smell has got better.
Initially I had planned on upgrading to a new Imac in August for my 75th birthday gift to myself, and then I was going to load it up. I settled for the green, 8gig ram 256 drive. I got a feeling that Apple was pushing the cloud for music and pictures. I do need to clean out my documents.
