Will Apple start offering 4K video, perhaps in the iTunes store?

For professional video people, Apple really pushed last year's Mac Pro desktop as 4K-friendly.

Riccio: With its stunning Retina 5K display, the new 27 inch iMac is by far the most amazing iMac we've ever built

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:12:03 PM
Would you buy this as a standalone 5K cinemadisplay?

Video wraps up. Schiller is back on stage

How much? Don't know yet, but it's not gonna be cheap.

by dan.ackerman via CNET 10/16/2014 6:12:15 PM
Schiller: Not only have we built an iMac with the most incredible display we've ever made, but throughout the product line we've update.

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:12:27 PM
Intel 3.5GHz, quadcore i5. Upgradeable to 4 GhZ.

AMD Radeon R9 295. Upgradeable to 295X

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:12:51 PM
by Tim Stevens via CNET 10/16/2014 6:12:52 PM
Ah, there's the AMD. Radeon R9 -- the Mac Pro desktop was also AMD-powered for GPU.

Thunderbolt 2

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:12:59 PM
Schiller: It's also built together in the most environmentally friendly manner

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:13:16 PM
No talking Intel's delayed Broadwell chips. This is strictly Haswell.

Schiller: What does this amazing state of the art new iMac cost?

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:13:23 PM
by Tim Stevens via CNET 10/16/2014 6:13:31 PM
by Tim Stevens via CNET 10/16/2014 6:13:35 PM
Schiller: Let's make a comparison. If you try to buy a new 4K display, not quite as many pixels as iMac. Range from $3000 and more.

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:13:43 PM
Schiller: new iMac with Retina 5K is going to cost $2,499

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:13:56 PM
by Tim Stevens via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:04 PM
Pricing on a 4K display? Schiller says $3K. Guess he doesn't shop Monoprice.

by dan.ackerman via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:08 PM
8Gb of memory

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:08 PM
It ships today

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:12 PM
by Tim Stevens via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:16 PM
Ships today, at $2,499. But old non-5K versions still available, including the recent 21.5-inch, which is essentially a MacBook built into an iMac case.

by dan.ackerman via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:40 PM
Schiller: Can't wait for you to see it and experience the incredible images

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:44 PM
by Carrie Mihalcik via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:44 PM
Schiller: We have one other small update today. Mac Mini

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:14:48 PM
Ok, I might be the only guy more interested in the Mac Mini.

Schiiller: Updated with faster processors, fourth generaiton Intel Core processors, Intel Iris and HD graphics 5000, 802.11 ac Wi-Fi, two Thunderbolt ports, world's most effecient

by Shara Tibken edited by Carrie Mihalcik 10/16/2014 6:15:22 PM
Haswell CPU and integrated GPU, 802.11ac, that's about it.

by dan.ackerman via CNET 10/16/2014 6:15:24 PM
Previously started at $599. New one starts at $499

by Shara Tibken via CNET 10/16/2014 6:15:32 PM
by Tim Stevens via CNET 10/16/2014 6:15:44 PM
For $499, the least-expensive way to get an OS X machine.

by dan.ackerman via CNET 10/16/2014 6:15:52 PM
Mac Mini hadn't been refreshed for two years. The device is Apple's most affordable computer, and it has a cult following. An owner must also purchase a display, keyboard, and mouse for the device to work, and the most expensive version of the box also works as an OS X server.
