Designed by the best people in the industry but built by a communist country which awful work environments. Crap like this is would not happen if made here.
Yeah, the only difference is back then, the Apple II users that hated the Mac weren’t as numerous as the Thunderbolt Display users (or AirPort users) that hate everything Apple does now LOL. Oh, and the trolls, can’t leave them out!
what's ridiculous is how this relatively inane post has clearly divided the audience here. some people have an issue with a 1mm tilt. others don't. in particular, I just don't see why people are hating on others for having an opinion. why are your feathers so ruffled some people want an iMac with a straight screen?
and since you're reading into my intentions, I'd counter you're trying to downplay an issue because it's apple. people can critique and hold them to a high standard. there's no harm in that, no harm to you or anyone.
Nothing divided here. In fact I got a great deal of Likes on my post and you were the only one who downvoted it. LOL Your post that I quoted in fact got a lot mixed likes, dislikes and laughs.
Not a single post of mine here denies that.
LMAO that's exactly what you're doing right now by saying my "feathers are ruffled" when it's actually yours that are which is why you're posting such an angry response.
Really? Show me any of my posts where I'm downplaying anything? You're making stuff up. 😂
So? Never said they couldn't. You're being defensive to the wrong person. As I said you're not paying attention to what you're writing.
It is definitely not expensive. 4,5k thin monitor + computer + keyboard + mouse + camera + speakers, all in aluminum body for 1200$ is great deal. There is nothing even comparable on the market in terms of spec and price.
i just want to say Faruk at iPhonedo is an exceptional YouTube reviewer. He didn't overblow the issue and just simply stated his was crooked, he showed a significant issue with his then got on the business of reviewing the computer. I don't blame him for replacing it, the lean was significant and he paid for his computer himself. It's OTHER organizations like, MacRumors (which I love but come on guys), that then start photoshopping crooked iMac's and making splashy headlines that will turn this into the next "gate".
Anyone who has a visibly crooked iMac however, I don't blame them replacing it.
Well let's be real about it. He has over 600k subscribers. HE KNOWS that the smallest Apple complaint will instantly be exacerbated on MR. He also could've just exchanged his computer without making a YouTube video about it. When people put out any adverse news about Apple on YouTube it spreads over the web instantly. If this was about Dell you'd never hear about it.
So typical. A 9 minute video for something that could have been covered in 2.
Look at me, look at me, look at me.
Look at me, look at me, look at me.
Yeah, he's exceptional. Takes 9 minutes to cover a subject he should have covered in 2.
Well, if you cannot get mechanical connections in the right spot how does anyone expect the software to work right!
Lets face it, most of the costs of an Apple device these days are just for Cook and his management team's vacation wonder lands.

Well then, there you have it. One can use Jony Ive's head as ballast for the "crooked" iMacs.
I really think if it's off by even one Planck length, it's unacceptable.
Wouldn't that suck to spend the money to upgrade to a VESA mount and get one with a crooked VESA mount.
Aside from the hilarious mockup, the sad thing about this image is that it accurately shows that iMac can't be rotated to portrait view, even on a VESA mount.
