I hear ya, but yeah an HDMI port on an iMac will simply never happen, there’s just no way. Mainly because no one would use it or need it, and the very very very small minority that would, would just use a thunderbolt port with an adapter or dock. And I honestly prefer the Ethernet on the power brick so much more, it’s much cleaner to just have 1 cable going to the computer than 2. With a “Pro” iMac I would say it’s a given that there will be at least 3 thunderbolt ports, more likely there will be 4, since they would have the Pro chip and probably even a Max chip option. I don’t see them doing a USB-A port though, especially if having one would cause the entire computer a need to be thicker, Apple would absolutely just forgo having old school USB in order to keep it as thin as possible. Which is why I would definitely expect the SD card slot to be on the side next to the headphone jack.
