Everything was packaged in a way that is completely different from before. Ha the iMac is even upside down in the box!
Why was it unbelievable?
Everything color matched in detail

Every aspect of packaging needed no knives. Even outer brown box

Packaging configured in a way to pop open and present everything like a pop-up book for kids

Maybe Apple has been doing this for a long time, but I haven’t bought a computer from them in quite some time. But numerous phones, iPads, watches etc didn’t go to these lengths. Very sophisticated and premium packaging. Like Japanese luxury items.
 
Green with white bezels almost disappears in a natural setting. I expect blue would too. Forgive lack of cord management. I have a grommet behind the computer, but requires taking drawers out, so haven't done it yet. First 3 photos are at night and last one is during the day. Don't laugh....but yes, my upstairs office is my bath vanity and I do get a lot of work done there with my morning coffee ;)

I’m jealous of everyone with tidy desks 😂 I call mine “organized chaos.” I don’t think I can show my iMac until I clean up.
Please do show yours. It's a bit unbelievable to see a completely clean desk......beautiful, but nonfunctional. I always think that either the person 1) has no work to do, 2) The computer is used only for gaming, or, most likely, 3) Hid all the paper/cords/photos/stickies/souvenirs/coffee cups/water bottles/pens/phone chargers/printer/scanner behind them prior to taking the photo. Your desk would be the "real" one 🤣

Drawers are your best friend for keeping a desk clutter free. I can assure you I spend 40+ hours a week at my desk doing my job 😄

It’s a great view too. Haha you got the little dog to pose so nicely.

I completely appreciate that! I agree, and do my best to keep my space organized. However, anyone who really looks at my desk while I'm working will probably see a coffee cup, paperwork, a couple of photos in frames, and my latest book.....maybe the mail if I haven't dealt with it yet. I have really tried to go completely paperless with a nice multipage scanner but that's still a work in progress!

Exactly! Additionally, my desk only looks this clean on weekends because I try to put everything away Friday after work so I have a fresh space on Monday - its therapeutic. You don't want to see my desk on a Thursday :D
 
Has anyone ordered their iMac with Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad? I'd like to see how they fit in with iMac and mouse/trackpad. I was able to see the product image from the Apple website (see below) but I'd love to see someone using it!

As per the title, let's see your 24" iMacs in their new homes.

I'll kick it off with mine.

Silver 16/512
Oooh....what stand is that for the iPad?

Here are my terrible pictures. Will get better ones once its moved to its permanent location when my desk is finished being built

Love that you got the keyboard with the num pad. I was debating, ordered without and now wish I had ordered with....but I can't get a color matched one with after the fact (although trying a trick someone from the Apple Store told me to see if I can possibly still get one).

Outside of laptops I don't know how people use a keyboard without the number pad. I use it way to much to not have it haha.

I also missed having the matching trackpad as I picked mine up in store. I rang apple support and after spending 45 mins on the phone to them they are sending me out the pink trackpad. I almost bought the standard silver one from apple today, good thing I rang apple first.

So apple only include the trackpads if you order online?

I’m surprised they don’t have them in store in various colours.

How much apple charge you for sending out a trackpad? (Hoping you say it’s free 😉)
