Good info there.
I just recently bought a new 27” and absolutely love it. Loaded Adobe CS Cloud and have run the most demanding applications all at the same time. Excellent performance.
I was going to get the MacBook Pro because I needed portability, but for just a little more than the price of that, I got the 27” and a MacBook Air to take care of my portability issues. Not a bad deal, I think. And I’m very happy to be back in the Mac world.
Low cost? What is the price of this new jewel?
My 17” MBP is getting “long in the tooth” — but it serves 95% of the time as desktop. Offloading most of that load onto an iMac — and using the MBP for portability when needed — just might make sense...
Thanks!
Apple makes new low-end 1.4GHz iMac official with $1,099 starting price
Breaking By AppleInsider Staff
Apple on Wednesday formally launched its anticipated new low-end 21.5-inch iMac with a lower entry price of $1,099, boasting a 1.4-gigahertz dual-core Intel Core i5 CPU, a 500-gigabyte hard drive, and 8 gigabytes of RAM.
I can’t use a Mac. I’m a heterosexual.
> According to Intel, the HD 5000 is twice as fast as the HD 4600. Apple may have sacrificed multi-core performance for GPU performance.
That’s interesting. If Apple’s serious about moving production back into the US, it’ll need to tend to its margins on the low end, rather than on the high end. Smart move.
You can’t upgrade the ram. 1.4 i5? Not here.
I am a huge OSX fan. With my legally “purchased” download of Mavericks I am running a CustoMac with i7 3.5 16gb ram (upgradeable to 32) and the speed & comfort of SATA 3 connections and a slot to add a thunderbird card. I have all I need for $750.00
I think Apple lost their minds with this particular iMac.
