- degamad 1y agoI thought iMacs preceeded iPods, but my memory may be failing me... The iMac was the original rebirth of the flagging Mac image...
- lotsofpulp 1y agoThey did, I am just disputing the notion that they were “wildly” successful. iPod and iPhones I would describe as wildly successful. Even AirPods. Even iPads. They were THE device to get in that market segment, and if you looked around lots of people had them. The M processor MacBooks are also wildly successful. But I don’t remember the iMacs being like that in early 2000s.
