I bought the 27-inch iMac in 2011. I don't mind the single screen, it helps focus actually.
I think it was the last version before Retina screens and SSDs, and that's why it's really heavy: 30.5 pounds (13.8 kg)! When I moved abroad, it was a massive pain to transport.
The video card gave up last year, and now I can't be bothered to repair it.
A laptop is just so much more convenient. And they're not as expensive and underpowered as their desktop counterparts anymore.
I'll probably never gonna by a desktop PC or Mac ever again.
- melling 9y agoA $100 video card would make a desktop PC usable. High-Sierra bricked my 2010 27" iMac. Not sure whether it's worth fixing. Not as pretty but I miss PC hardware. I'd leave the case open so I could save a few minutes when I'd add/change memory, hard drive, video card, CPU... For me, a 7 year old PC would be turned into a Linux box.
