Payment is completed online, and a valid government-issued photo ID and the order number may be required upon pickup.

The refreshed 24-inch iMac includes an Apple-designed M3 Arm-based chip that replaces the M1 chip and brings significant speed and efficiency improvements.

There are no major external design changes to the M3 iMac, which is available in a range of bright colors, including green, blue, pink, silver, orange, yellow, and purple.

The 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models can be purchased today with the M3 and M3 Pro chips, while models with the new M3 Max chip won't become available until later in November. The MacBook Pro models have slightly brighter display levels when viewing SDR content, and also include support for Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3. Apple offers the MacBook Pro in silver, space gray, and space black aluminum color options, depending on chip configuration.

Pricing for the MacBook Pro starts at $1,599 for the 14-inch model and $2,499 for the 16-inch model, while the iMac starts at $1,299.

iMac is a rock solid proof that Tim doesn't want to innovate. You can do so much with iMac. It can be an all-in-one that can also function as external display for Macbooks. When it is idle it can also function as widget-full display for home. It can do so much. Stop ripping off loyal customers with bs gimmicks and make real innovation, Tim.

I’m still butt hurt about Apple limiting Space Black to the real Pro models. ? I will admit to being a wanker who doesn’t need Pro power but just love the color. My M1 MBA is more than enough but have always hade a soft spot for black Macs since the early 2000s black MacBook days.
