Apple’s problem is that they don’t sell a home computer with your specs. At most you get a dual-core iMac, then the next step up is the workstation systems loaded with Xeon processors. It would be nice if Apple started offering quad-core iMacs, or didn’t have their consumer desktop (the mini) be only low-power.
I agree. There’s plenty of market space for a lower dollar, high performance Mac. They drop the price, and I”m there. Currently it makes no sense for me.
