      I mean, even in the bottom end most PC monitors are more than 24". Hell, my $200 el cheapo Sceptre ultrawide can still fit a 26" widescreen image. 24" for a monitor is pretty pathetic regardless of display quality, especially for a machine nearing the $2k mark (which takes no small quantity of the piss).

    There are a few aspects of the design[language] of the 24-inch iMac that are perfect for its targeted audience. It comes in colors to match your decor, and the white bezel won't clash with the white wall you are facing while you use it. The chin allows each family member to adjust the angle of the display without leaving fingerprints on the screen. It has just enough power for homework and other household uses, and its price[point] is just right. A very good design!

      @Filip Jovanovic yes, ultrawides commonly are 21:9 (mostly 1440px in height). I don't like 4K 28" for productivity since in a 2x2 grid 4x14" 1080p monitors are just too small for me to work with and in a 2x1 the windows are very narrow. with ultrawide I really like that I can have two ~square windows (1720x1440) besides each other or 3 narrow ones.
      I can also recommend curved ultrawide, I don't have too move my head around much.

      I agreed with this, until I went with a 34 inch ultra wide.
      Going back to literally anything else is difficult. Being in school, I couldn’t tell you the last time I didn’t have 2 applications running and being able to have word, and a browser open, or an IDE and a browser open is amazing.

      @xenonram 3 года назад +2

      It is sent to them from dbrand. Dbrand buys the Apple products, applies the skin, then sends it to LMG. So they don't ever have it without the skin. You can see tons of pics of it without the skin online. So that's really not necessary. Just picture it liking like every other iMac that's been made in the past 20 years. It's silver metal. And since they have 6 other colors, showing the silver one is kind of pointless.

    The only problem I have with the M1 platform, is the extreme lack of support for virtualization. I’m in a Linux class, and over half of the students can’t run fedora in a virtual machine. Of course unless they want to use apple’s solution. So the people who have M1 macs had to either run apples hypervisor which is more complex than say VMWare, or, we had a few students use AnyDesk to allow other students to remote into virtual machines to do work.
