This seems like a relatively minor update.

This is the last ever version with Intel support, right? That's a milestone of sorts.

Which is a bit sad. There were some choices that didn’t pan out in the last Intel era (butterfly, touchbar), but part of me loved those changes (the keyboard and the touchbar felt super premium, until you tried to work with them for any amount of time).

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my 2020 iMac in a year. I really want to be able to repurpose that 5k screen but Apple does not make it easy.

I might just leave it in perma-Windows Boot Camp.

If you're up for a project, you can swap the guts of those 5K iMacs for an aftermarket controller board which turns it into a regular monitor. It's a bit janky but a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a new 5K monitor.

I mean the obvious other choice would be Linux. Wayland is pretty good with hidensity screens nowdays.
