> Who's the target market, other than sleek reception desks?
The "business center" at my apartment complex has a 2015(?) iMac.
It is connected to a small printer/copier/scanner.
You can log in as guest,
open your email or whatever you need to do,
and log out from the guest account
and the iMac will dutifully forget about you
and be ready for the next person.
I know practically everyone has an app phone these days
but it is useful if you need something quick.
I bet a new iMac today will similarly last the next ten years
for basic kiosk tasks.
- brundolf 3y agoSure, I guess I lumped this sort of kiosk under "reception desk". But there's no way that market is big enough on its own to justify the product
- SllX 3y agoThere’s a lot of reception desks in the world. I mean that’s not the only market for iMacs but Apple could probably build a pretty good multi-billion dollar business going after just the reception desk market if they were dedicated to the cause.
