I'd love to recommend the iMac to my family and friends but the storage options are just too small. An iPhone has the same amount of storage.

M2/M3 iMac please?
And while we're at it maybe we can get an actual replacement for the 27 inch iMac.

Expect the M2 version announcement via press release soon. No M3 this year.
Nope. They’ve been pretty adamant iMac will not get M2.

We all know the problem isn’t long term performance, the problem will appear 4-5 years from now when Apple artificially EOL’s it “because it’s a 7-8 year old machine”. ?
Windows 11 artificially EOL'd a lot of computers that could run it. We have a Lenovo P50 with 32 GB of RAM and a Xeon processor that was blocked from Windows 11 because it lacked a TPM chip. It was only 5 years old when Windows 11 was released.

It should have been $999 when it was released two years ago.
