      You can’t really wait ten years because:
      #1. Apple would most likely discontinue it
      #2. Apple won’t support it anymore
      #3. You won’t be getting major iOS updates
      #4. It would be WAYYYYY too outdated

    I have and still use the 27" iMac from 2014. It has a Retina 5k display. 4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7. 32 GB 1861 MHz DDR3. AMD Radeon R9 M395K 4 GB. It did cost me 4.895€ at that time it was build.
    But all in one nice video, thanks for your upload!

      It seems to me the 2014 is found (second hand) not so often like the model before (2013) and the one after (2015 mid and late). Any idea why?

      @@anaraluca1181 I think, that this one is never build again and it is still the best iMac. No one want to loose it, cause it's the best. Even the newer iMacs are worse than mine!
