I don't get why they keep sacrificing things people still use like drives to tout thinness.

"Thin" is in. Hence the domination of those terrible LED backlit LCD TVs.

 

[enzo_gt]

Lol @ deceptively thin edge and them even mentioning how thin the edge is like it even matters.

 

[mrkgoo]

No drive on iMac confirmed?

It's too thin.

Why even bother with a chin now?

 

[Fleet_of_Foot]

So very very bought.

WE KNOW.

 

[CrankyJay]

sweet, facetime camera

 

[grimshawish]

Does it sound better? Does it though?

 

[andycapps]

Please give us a badass GPU

680M 2GB pls

Would be nice, but not counting on it.

 

[Ragus]

I love it.

 

[MThanded]

interesting macbook pro splayed out inside lol.

 

[cbox]

How the hell do you fix that thing if it's "welded" ?

 

[Duxxy3]

how did they do that??

Everything integrated.

 

[Chris R]

Wow, laptop hdd, user serviceable ram and dedicated gpu. I take it all back!

 

[Enco]

 

[KingKong]

man their custom internals are really beautiful

 

[RBH]

WE KNOW.

:lol

 

[Dany]

Must be nice living in the past. Does the army there still use horses and bayonets?

ETHER

 

[AlphaTwo00]

SD slot in the back? What in the bloody hell?

 

[smr00]

They'd sell you an external one for a price, of course.

iDrive only $699

If you want one that actually plays DVDs that is going to cost an additional $250

 

[Anticitizen One]

Apple FUSSION DRIVE OMG

 

[coldfoot]

Pointless to have such a thin desktop, you don't carry it!
Much better to get something like this:

 

[LyleLanley]

How the hell do you fix that thing if it's "welded" ?

I'm pretty sure iMacs haven't been fixable by users for a while now.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Fusion drive is not anything new... Nice name, though.

 

[grimshawish]

You can do that - why can't you make an Ipod Touch with 160gb, or an updated Classic :'(

 

[jokkir]

Is it just me or are those the worst places to put input devices?

 

[rinse82]

:lol fusion drive.

or what the rest of the world calls it, hybrid drives.

 

[CurlySaysX]

Fusion drive. It's Beautiful.

 

[ZedIndyLil]

Glad they updated the iMac at last. That thing is lovely.

 

[MThanded]

Lol @ deceptively thin edge and them even mentioning how thin the edge is like it even matters.

All these companies tout their thinnest measurement. Nothing new.

 

[numble]

It is a desktop computer... did they make it thinner just for the marketing bullet point?

A laminated display does make a visual difference, and it is thinner as a consequence of lamination.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Apple is so goddamned good at marketing holy shit.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

Apple Fusion drive!

Welcome to a couple of years ago.

 

[pxleyes]

YES!!!! Flash plus HDD in the iMac. Bring that to the laptops!

 

[kharma45]

Apple just invented the cache drive.

 

[KingKong]

ohshit coming to laptops soon?

 

[tnaden]

SD slot in the back? What in the bloody hell?

More importantly.. the headphone jack in the back?! What?

Fusion drives coming to Mac finally.. and they branded it as if it's their thing lol

 

[ghst]

all the convenience of a desktop combined with the roaring horsepower of a laptop. i'm surprised these all in ones aren't more popular.

 

[brotkasten]

Fusion drive.

Like every hybrid drive out there, but with a nicer name. Once again, well done, Apple.*tips hat*

 

[noah111]

This fusion drive is EXCELLENT, exactly what I wanted. One drive, but with the benefits of HDD size and SDD speed.

 

[darkwing]

fully laminated display? where can I buy something like that?

 

[Zeth]

I love it.

 

[Ambitious]

"It just works?" Spare me that bullshit.

 

[xxracerxx]

iDrive only $699

If you want one that actually plays DVDs that is going to cost an additional $250

Some great comedy going on in this thread. Haha.

Their drive is $79 or $69 I think.

 

[LCfiner]

Fusion drive. that's what I'll be doing.

 

[massoluk]

Sigh...
Stupid made up buzzword.

Retina Display and now Fusion Drive.

 

[Chuckl3s]

[Darko]

Fusion drive. It's Beautiful.

omg.

 

[buhdeh]

all the convenience of a desktop combined with the roaring horsepower of a laptop.

lmao

 

[JaggedSac]

Sounds like how Windows 8 handles storage spaces.

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

This fusion shit is high tech.

 

[Radec]

man their custom internals are really beautiful

Beautiful inside and out.

Design-wise ofcourse.
