Comment Corner
I’m hearing again about the possible future discontinuation of the iMac. I have had iMacs from grape color to M-series chip (6 of them) and they have been family workhorses. If and when that dread day happens, what will be a reasonable replacement for about the same cost? Mini or MacBook with a monitor? Apple I with a TV? Right now it’s good to be able to use external hard drives for backup and music.
