@matigo Traded up to a new SE. Same purchase price as the old one but twice the capacity. Black, 128 GB.
Old iPhone SE has been disconnected from all services & erased. It’s back in the box it cane in, along with a pair of white Apple stickers, a USB/Lightning cable, a 5W charger & the original headphones.
@variablepulserate Rumours abound of a 23-inch screen being squoze in to the same housing, reducing those fat bezels.
I’m perfectly happy with the screen area of my 21.5-in 4k iMac, anything the size of 27-in hurts my neck in looking that close up.

@variablepulserate How old is your iMac? With the new tapered shape from 2012 onward (no optical drive), the 27-inch came in at 21 lbs, earlier 27-inchers were 30.5 lbs.

@variablepulserate I have a 20-inch Cinema Display (DVI) that weighs 5.8 kg. My 21017 4k 21.5-inch iMac weighs 5.7 kg.

I have different names for my iOS devices: the 5th gen iPad is "Madam Susan's Greater House of Pain," 6th gen iPod Touch is "Silverbird," 7th gen iPod Touch is "Reddy1," iPad Mini is "SmallPad" & the Space Grey iPhone SE is "GreyPower."
Thinking of various names for the black 128 GB iPhone SE (2020) that's on its way I don't think I can do any better than "The New Black."
@sumudu Maybe so, but the MacBook was designed from the outset to support all manner of USB items, whereas a plain innocuous USB pen drive can tell an iOS device that it draws too much power. I then discover that a different one by the same manufacturer is OK. This is when the hub has to be used.

I'm seeing rumours on various blogs of a new low-end iMac, replacing the current 21.5-inch models with a 23-inch display while retaining the same form factor. This is achieved by reducing the size of the bezels around the edges of the screen. It's expected they'd use 10th generation Intel processors as well.
Would be good if the displays were Retina & SSDs used instead of HDDs & Fusion drives.
Successful baking episode. Done a rather nice soda bread. Not to be confused with yeast breads, these are dense constructs that go well served warm with a fruit conserve or honey. I'm be having a few lumps with a bowl of soup for lunch today.
@matigo Hubs certainly work with my iPads, 5th gen 9.7" & 5th gen 7.9" Mini.
Some USB devices connected via USB draw too much power. But when connected to a powered hub, they mount just fine.
