If I ever got one of these I'd just get the silver iMac, but I'd find a way to get the orange keyboard and mouse. A little splash of color, just not the whole computer itself.
The pricing does seem off, somehow. Would've been a no-brainer to see a $1,099 (crippled), $1,299 and $1,499 layout.
Assuming their RAM pricing remains the same ($200 to go to 16GB), that $1,499 model (256GB SSD) is now $1,699. That's the bare minimum of anything I'd buy in 2021 (16GB RAM, 256GB SSD). I've got 256GB now and right at half full, so I'd be okay with that amount again. But the 16GB RAM, I won't budge on.
But you do get a larger screen, the M1, the better camera, sound, etc.
So I guess it all kinda shakes out in the end. Just depends on what's important to you.
