Apple’s Mac family ******** a large business segment even though it’s less important to the company than the iPhone. In the June quarter, Apple reported $7 billion in Mac sales, up about 2% on an annual basis.

Still, Apple’s marketing the new Macs with a focus on artificial intelligence to build momentum around its new offering.

The M4 iMac comes in new shades including green, yellow, orange, pink and purple. It’s also still available in silver. All four USB-C ports on the back also support the fastest Thunderbolt 4 standard, which means you can transfer large videos and other files faster. It supports up to two additional 6K displays. It comes with an updated Magic Mouse and Magic Keyboard with USB-C charging, too, replacing the older Lightning port.

In September, Apple announced new iPhones, Apple Watches, and AirPods. The Mac announcements this week are likely Apple’s last major new hardware announcements for the year.
