New iMac query

[GSpencer]

Im looking at buying a new iMac but is the following correct...

It won't come with latest OS High Sierra as it comes with a fusion drive or have I got it all wrong?

Thanks

You can install High Sierra with the HFS+ file system for now. Later on Apple will have worked out the issues with AFS on Fusion Drives and you can reinstall from a Time Machine backup if you want to.

It may or may not come with high sierra but you can use it whether it does or not, you'll just have to wait for the improved filing system to be enabled on your machine.
