At home I have a 32GB 1800x system with a 2GB/s NVME drive and a 1080ti. I chose Nvidia after years of AMD use due to performance. Of course I use it for gaming as well. At work I have a Dell XPS 15 and we've been buying those or P-series Lenovo's for the devs there.
The new iMac is $6300CAD. There's no way I'm buying it for myself or my devs.
The iOS devs at work get Macbook Pros and prefer the portable nature of them. The UX team get those as well - for the same reason. Plus we'd never fork out that much money for a single machine.
Maybe people who work with 4k video or VFX and need OSX would go for these.
What’s interesting is there is a local company that sells a package where you pay a fee to drive super cars on this road. That includes a Model S and they get you to enable auto pilot to experience it.
My buddy tried it and said it worked just fine - on the winding road before you get to Squamish.
I guess my anecdote is just as invalid/valid as the author’s.
