It’s like buying a 5k display and getting a subsidized computer. There’s ~1 5k monitor on the market today (LG)?
I wonder how expandable this is? Buy the bottom end machine with the CPU you want and upgrade SSD and RAM? I would imagine SSD is upgradeable but RAM soldered onto the mobo?
- pvarangot 6y agoOn Apple laptops "SSDs" are also soldered PCIe flash memory chips or something like that, so maybe on this very thin desktop computer they will also be doing that.

- localhost 6y agoThanks. Hopefully the SSD is accessible too. I have a ~2010 iMac 27" and I had to pull of the front glass of the monitor and disassemble half the computer to replace the HDD with an SSD. That was a gigantic PITA.
- abrowne 6y agoI think the SSDs on all the T2 computers are built-in to the mobo — the T2 is the disk controller — so not even a removable card on the back side like the iMacs models up to now.
