sorted byI agree. 16Gb = better. (apart from the scandalous fee Apple charge for the uplift)
It's like an expensive paperweight.
In most cases you are better off having a Mac mini plus monitor which is so much more flexible. You can upgrade monitor as and when, and also Mac mini is cheap to replace.
You'd only really need an iMac for things like office/gym receptions.
Anyway, really good deal for my usage. This will be used in my wife's salon on the reception. So after vat £666.66
The conventional wisdom being that heat and dust can shorten the working life and... It will thermally throttle performance to protect itself and you could use a fan control app to spin up the fan at a lower temp than Apple target, but this works much less well in this single fan model without headpipe, apparently. Good resale value wise, it's hard to sell an Apple silicon Mac that's broken because they aren't easily repaired, despite years of sustained pressure from the right to repair lobby.
Take out Apple Care and don't over tax it and I'm sure you'll be just fine. If you haven't seen it in person, yet, it has a very lovely screen for media consumption, if you don't mind white bezels (I'm told you get used to them) I generally have good customer care experiences with Costco, so if you're going to buy it from a physical store, they are a pretty good bet compared to some... stores... one in particular that I won't mention. Anyway, hot (no pun intended!).

Surprised at the lack of Apple loyalists defending the "8GB on Mac is like muh 16GB on WinDoze herp derp".
It's a good price relative to what it's been but it's a cold deal ultimately as it's extremely poor value. In a couple of years apple's planned obsolescence will kick in and you suddenly have an out of date brick. That's not even factoring in the pathetic amount of RAM that all but guarantees the machine is useless for anything other than scrolling Facebook or adding emojis to a video of your dog.
You also get a single noisy fan in the 8/7 config, but it's okay, the machine can't handle anything heavy anyway so at worst its a small annoyance. (edited)
why would you put a 4.5k screen on... actually i know the answer. video editing.
the 256 hdd and 8 gb ram are perfect for video editing

Each to their own however, if you see this as good value go for it.
