- volkk 6y agoif that were to happen, then its price point would be unimaginable
- _ph_ 6y agoI wonder what the ARM based iMacs will bring. There is a lot of talk about a fundamental redesign and Big Sur really looks like being designed for touch. If an iMac should support touch and pencil, it would need a foot similar to the one of the Surface Studio too.
- naravara 6y agoI'm not really sure about that. It would probably be useful for artists and draftsmen, but I keep my iMac pretty far from my face while I would want to keep a drawing table pretty close. The Studio was really cool as a design concept, but I'm not sure how well it translated from showroom to daily use for anyone who isn't a professional artist. And even for professional artists, I have to imaging the portability of an iPad Pro probably blows it out of the water for those use cases. Some people think it's more natural to move their canvas around the pen than vice-versa, so just being able to move the device/screen around is huge.
