What do programmers think about 27inch iMac (2013)? I do not like it at all. The screen is too glossy (reflecting not just the overhead lights but more like a mirror). The screen is shaped like square rather than rectangle. This forces you to move your eyes&#x2F;neck in all directions. And it has old noisy hard drives rather than SSDs.<p>I have removed the imac outer mirror screen to reduce glare [1] and am always resizing windows. Now I mostly use imac as external monitor for macbook, in target display mode. However, TDM is too fragile to use. For example, you need to login to your account in iMac before you can send the key signal via ssh from your laptop, otherwise the signal is ignored [2,3].<p>I can rant more about imac. For example, my imac speakers do not work. Apparently, some time when I removed my head phone, the imac sensors got stuck into believing that headphones are still plugged in [4].<p>With so many issues, I cannot believe that iMac is a labor of love, as the article suggests.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=DSF84EoQBvk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=DSF84EoQBvk</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;superuser.com&#x2F;questions&#x2F;540799&#x2F;sending-key-via-ssh-or-using-mouse-to-activate-target-display-mode" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;superuser.com&#x2F;questions&#x2F;540799&#x2F;sending-key-via-ssh-o...</a><p>[3] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;5211301" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;5211301</a><p>[4] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;3694502" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;3694502</a>
