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!

This is the better version if you're looking for an iMac. This 8-core and 8-core gpu with a build in fan. The keyboard have the fingerprint sensor and 4 USB-C ports.
Bought a mini M1, a usb extension hub with 2TB m2 ssd and using a standard Dell 27" monitor. Now I have about 7 cables, 1 HDMI and 2 are power outlets used as a result. But if I need the 4.5k display. I would probably just get this and a hub since the system is only 256GB
An M1 with a larger sized thunderbolt monitor will probably save about $100-200 off. But not everyone will need something like a TB monitor.. Unless you have some sort of visual design background that requires you to be able to distinguish the colors for editing.

I'd jump on this if only the display had a display input. My desk fits only one monitor and I need an external monitor for work. Such an unfortunate omission.
