The M3 iMac is pretty excellent, the ultimate all-in-one computer, perfect for a family or a student limited on space. But it's not what you'd call cheap, and going all-in-one can often have unintended consequences. It's not a flexible or modular desktop computing solution, and there are cheaper ways to achieve Apple desktop computing nirvana, as I'm about to show you.
I've spent nearly a decade either working at Apple or writing about the company, so I know a thing or two about good value Apple computing. So if you want to build an Apple desktop setup that's compact, future-proof, and cheaper than the cost of an M3 iMac, strap in.
