WTF ever. You have to factor in the Windows bullshit coefficient, which is about .68.
These days it's not uncommon for me to have Adobe AE, Premiere, and Media Encoder, all open with projects at once. My Surface would start to smell like burning plastic if I had tried that.
@aqua-letifer he also said that he's waiting for the 30-32" iMac.
Me too.

That is not the fault of the OS.

Only happens on Windows machines for me, never Macs. So, gonna stick with the latter.

Well, I was hoping for at least a 27" screen, but nope. It's at 24."
Multiple colors.
M1 chip.
4 ports (2 of which are thunderbolt).
Headphone jack on the side of the computer? What the hell?
Still has a chin.
Uses a power brick which will rout ethernet to the Mac.
Keyboard has Touch ID.
1080p camera.
"4.5K display"
That Mac Mini is looking better and better.

Here's an interesting gadget:

Interesting, indeed, but I guess if one wants to use that thing, one needs to buy the right monitor. I think most monitors won't work with it because something is in the way (including the one I bought).

If it's VESA compatible, it should work, shouldn't it? Unless the ports are that close to where the VESA plate would go.

The main problem is that most monitors look like this on the back.
Ah, I see your point.

I guess in particular you can rule out all monitors with adjustable height.
