Emphasis on generally. Apple still sells many (most?) of its iMacs with spinning rust drives. Just picking up something from Apple Store and paying tons for it does not guarantee it meets minimum quality standards one might expect.

- mikorym 7y agoWhat do you mean by that? That the quality is not good or that the stock is old?
