Getting over the death of a platform like the big iMac will be tricky for some, but Apple needs to offer a sensible alternative. There was nothing for either set of users during Tuesday’s event. The gaping holeīetween the M1 Mac mini and Mac Studio, there is a gaping, cavernous hole in which sits a bunch of very pissed off Mac fans. Some of them wanted a big iMac, while the rest yearned for a beefed-up Mac mini. If you were waiting for that big iMac, you’ll need to buy a Studio Display to satisfy your thirst for screen estate, and add a separate computer to it. Similarly, I’ve ordered a Studio Display, but I count myself among a minority of users who have a desire (note – not a ‘need’) for such a monitor.ĭespite this, Apple’s message is clear. Indeed, I spoke to a video production company yesterday who expressed their delight for Apple “thinking of us”.īut that’s a vastly small market in Apple World. I think the Mac Studio is a wonderful computer for a very specific audience. And, thanks once again to hindsight, it’s clear that when Apple canned the Intel-based iMac Pro a year ago, that was simply the beginning of the end for the entire big iMac product line. There were mutterings about it having a 32-inch screen and suggestions that it would revive the iMac Pro brand. With hindsight, rumours for the 27-inch iMac’s replacement have never been that strong or voluminous. That’s right – the larger version of the 24-inch M1 iMac was nowhere to be seen. Only, it wasn’t the big-screen Mac platform that so many people were hoping for. However, the ‘Peak performance’ event took most of us by surprise, didn’t it? iPhone SE and boring update to the iPad Air aside, this was an entirely pro-focused affair.Īpple presented us with a barnstorming finale for the M1 platform with the M1 Ultra, and a brand-new Mac platform that included a big 27-inch display. But I did think we’d be treated to it later this year. I didn’t think we’d see the next big iMac during Apple’s March event. Apple has almost certainly removed that big daddy iMac from its website because that is no longer a product line in which Tim and co. They’ve take stuff down! A new version must be on the way!Įr, no. This kind of activity on Apple’s website doesn’t always ring alarm bells – indeed it often rings bells that are far more positive in nature. And that does appear to be the case it isn’t on the website anymore you can no longer buy a brand-new 27” iMac. On Tuesday, news emerged that Apple had discontinued the 27-inch iMac. I think Apple has killed off the big iMac. I have a feeling that this article won’t go down very well.īy that, I don’t mean ‘ Apple needs to cancel the Apple TV’ levels of fury – I’m simply referring to the fact that a great many people will not want to read the words I’m about to write.
