I am waiting on the new iMacs to hit the market before picking one up but had a few questions.
I know no one knows for sure what the new ones will be like or anything so I guess if this department all stayed the same with the new iMacs could you answer the following ...
I am prefacing this with I have built PC's for about 15 years, so upgrading a mac does not scare me and it pretty easy unless Apples tries to be a dick about it with their screw choices haha.
Are they easy top upgrade? Like the back panel just unscrews giving you access to everything?
On the website, you have the option of adding 2 hard drives. If I wanted to just add my own when it came will the connections I need still be in ther the iMac, or does apple take them out since I did not order the 2nd hard drive? Are the hard drives 2.5" or 3.5"?
Is RAM just an easy switch out like it was on my MBP?
Can I swap out CPU's if wanted to? Or does Apple somehow stop you from doing so?
I am looking at getting the 27" iMac, but I want to add the stuff I already have laying around and not pay outrageous prices for Apple to put it in there ... If I do not have to.
I think those are all my questions for now ...
