5K iMac is one sexy looking screen. Why they feel the need to make it so thin, however, and slap a mobile GPU in it I really don't know. I suppose we'll see how it performs.

Apparently, Thunderbolt 2 (or whatever it is we're on) doesn't have the bandwidth for 5k support - so first revision Mac Pro adopters wouldn't be able to attach a potential standalone 5k Apple screen to their PC (without some sort of swappable upgrade from Apple, or something). This suggests to me we won't be seeing a new Mac Pro for 2 years (probably understandably anyway) but also no standalone screens of this type within Apple's ecosystem for 2 years or so (if they ever go that way at all) - which is a shame.

The one thing I find annoying about Apple's Macs (other than the price) is that they only offer good graphics on the highest end models...all the entry level to mid-range models are cruddy Intel graphics.
