Most likely this price is because M2 iMacs are imminent.
Please, if you will, humor us all and put together a package for $1,000 that meets or beats this unit's 8 core CPU / GPU Passmark scores, SSD read/write speeds, 4.5k 100% P3 color space monitor at 218 ppi and 500 nits, WiFi speed of 760 MBit/s, two (2) Thunderbolt 3's at 40Gbps, two (2) USB 3.1 Gen 2's at 10Gbps, a 1080P webcam and microphones of this quality, and a six (6) speaker sound system that is equally as superb.
Also, don't forget the cost of a keyboard with fingerprint login and a mouse capable of multi touch input.
We will all be waiting for the cost of the i7 system or better it will take to beat this iMac at $1,000. You can try, but if you can't put the system together right here right now, well, then you simply live in a world where measurable objective criteria are meaningless.
Waiting endlessly for a link to something even marginally better in all of these metrics at $1,000 or less.
Oh, and don't worry, there will be no requirement that it be less than 10lbs or 1/2 inch thick like the iMac.
Good luck!

It's a beautiful machine and the setup was painless and even fun.

$1000 was a great deal for this machine.
In Apple land this sort of discount is almost unheard of. I guess they were clearing out some stock of various colors that they still had in inventory.
Not that it really matters, but which color did you get?

It is cool, all of the color matching accessories (mouse, keyboard, and cables. Silly but cool.

What in the world is everyone storing locally that can't be in the Cloud and available instantly? Is it like a warm blankie that you just have to have with you and always close by Schroeder?
Don't get me wrong, I was right there with you, in 2003, and kept everything local. Two decades hence though, there simply is no need unless you deal with massive media files or use your PC for gaming.
If you live in a remote area, then the storage needs are justified.
I bought my Macbook entirely for software development, and even after removing all games and misc files I keep on my cloud, I'm still fighting for space. XCode seems to take up over 30GB by itself, and seems to demand 20+ more of free space to allow for any updates. That alone feels like half of the "usable" space on the laptop. I'm incapable of keeping all the programming languages I'd like to play with because 256GB isn't nearly enough, 512GB would've been perfect though.
On topic: Okay deal, but if it must be a Mac, I'd still recommend a Macbook or Mac Mini instead. The iMac color scheme is questionable, and unless I'm reading this wrong it comes with a keyboard w/o touch ID, along with the magic mouse (which is terrible). Just buy the components separately, and even if it costs slightly more, you'll have a better setup in the end.
