A 30 INCH IMAC?! 👀
Holy hell that would certainly make up for years without a 27 inch iMac. That would be an excellent iMac Pro

Godot will get here long before that happens.
Maybe a new mouse design with a better port placement too

What are the chances of AirPower being introduced in 2023-2024?
LOL, please let us know when you find any example of "bug free systems and application software"
In 4 years, instead of having to spend 3000 again for a full iMac, you will only have to spend like 1500 or so on another Mac Mini since you already have a good monitor. I think that the Mac Mini / Mac Studio + a display is a better solution.
2 new M3 MacBook Air models - interesting - it's for me!
It's worth waiting for, knew it!
I'm not in despair, my MBA do what I need it to. I just want to get rid of the intel noice 😉
On college campuses as well. That, or really convincing knockoffs.
As far as the 13" Pro goes, yes, it has an outdated design, but there's a large contingent of kids that get a MacBook for college as a High School graduation gift and spring for the Pro due to prestige or the implied higher performance. Keeping the 13 around provides a (relatively) affordable entry point to the "Pro" Apple ecosystem, and I'm sure that these M chips are produced at such a scale where the savings offset the cost of the minor changes made to the main logic board and other components needed to keep the new chip in the old 2016-era shell.
One other perk of the touch bar-it's the only remaining MacBook where you can easily adjust the keyboard brightness via reconfiguring the control strip. After the asinine changes to the F5 and F6 keys, the only way to regain this functionality on a new Air is to edit a .plist and deal with mismatched key icons. I never understood why they would push dictation and focus modes, both easily accessible in software, to the detriment of a useful hardware shortcut.
After switching to a 49”’wide screen I could never go back to anything smaller. A 30” iMac seems would seem to be overpriced for the screen real estate.
The work experience and usability is second to none in my ultra wide screen. I don’t need a super sharp res because I’m not doing video editing or anything along those lines.

I'm not sure there's a market for the device at that price...
Put me down for an Apple Watch Ultra 2. Glad to hear it is coming, I'm ready to upgrade.
iMac---meh the brand has become absolutely boring to me. After using my Ultra Wide Screen display
at work I see why UW is so popular. iMacs are out in my household. I'd rather go with a mini and UW display.
Not looking at iPads until next year for myself. Might nab a sale on the iPad mini for my sons. Not really feeling expensive iPads so the 2024 Air may be my next one.
Need the HomePod/Apple TV hybrid which to me is simply going to be a consumer conference like soundbar (though it'll probably be in a compact shape with a Facetime cam)
Where's our fooking replacement for the Airport routers Apple?

"Refreshed 13" MBP"... Why are they still keeping this thing alive?
That's because the people who rant about a large screen iMac want one so they can fully emerse themselves in shows like Stranger Things. They'll end up buying a $117, 32-inch, 720p "smart tv".
Because people are buying it. Just like some want a big iMac, which is just as silly.
I love the iMac. I’ve had so many over the years and was sad when the 27” went away. Though in fairness I’m quite happy with the modular setup of an M2 Mac mini + Studio Display.
I’m curious to see how they market a 30” iMac if it does come to fruition. Maybe it’ll be an iMac Pro with Pro & Max chips? Could be a nice lineup for the desktops once they’re all updated:
iMac w/M3
iMac Pro w/M3 Pro
iMac Pro w/M3 Max
Mac mini w/M3
Mac mini w/M3 Pro
Mac Studio w/M3 Max
Mac Studio w/M3 Ultra
Mac Pro w/M3 Ultra
Probably for institutional / large volume corporate use. But yeah, looks bloody terrible in what is actually a nice MacBook lineup (13“ & 15” Airs, 14” & 16” Pros).

Becoming my experience. 30" display feel antiquated. Seriously mulling grabbing a 49" UW with two computer inputs so that I can connect both my Mac and my wife's and we can use the 49 in conjunction with our iPads in Universal control
Well, I think you misunderstood his intention. There is 13" Air and there is 14" MBP. There is zero reason to have 13" MBP too.
Unlike in your example where there is no bigger iMac and its only one model and only M variant (not Pro or Max).
Those that are used to 27" iMac which frankly was a better seller are of course craving for one.

His audience is not primarily enthusiasts, it is investors, specifically traders. The kind of people who make a living reading a little bit about every industry and figuring out that putting some money on copper from a particular country is smart because company X is updating product Y and political instability is making their usual supply line more expensive. Or something.
Gurman could be 51% accurate and someone out there will bank millions on that margin. This is the industry that built a dedicated $300m fiber optic cable between NYC and Chicago to shave a few milliseconds off of commodity future trades.
