That really depends on what you want and what kind of person you are, maybe it doesn't make sense to you but for a lot of people—myself included—it makes sense

That really depends on what you want and what kind of person you are, maybe it doesn't make sense to you but for a lot of people—myself included—it makes sense to have an integrated device at home too. I'd always consider this before making blanket "It doesn't make sense" statements. As you can tell by the unit sales I'm not the only one who thinks that way.
- lisper 8y agoI didn't make any blanket statements. I said that it doesn't make sense to me, that I see no benefit beyond aesthetics. Obviously many people see it differently or they wouldn't buy iMacs. Either they value aesthetics more than I do, or they see some other benefit that I have overlooked. (But I will note that so far in this discussion no one has been able to actually identify such a benefit.)
- rrdharan 8y agoI have had three iMacs: 24” I purchased in 2007 which died due to a failed/faulty power strip, a used 27” I bought in 2014, and a refurb 27” 5k I bought in 2017. I value aesthetics more than you do, and I’m entirely comfortable with the amount I’ve spent on these machines over the years.
