The Mac Studio configuration (for me) would push the price to around $3800.00 That's roughly the same memory equivalent of my eight-year old 27" iMac (expect for the RAM: 32GB vs 16), plus the cost of a new 27" display.

With the MacMini, plus 27" display, the price drops to around $3000.00

The 24" iMac comes in around $2100.00.

I'll give up the 3 inches to save $900.00. I'd probably need the $900 (or more!) to upgrade my other apps.

I'm getting less for more, and that sucks.
