What? There is a lot wrong with AIOs.

1) Cooling is atrocious

2) Dust problems

3) Very difficult repairs and almost impossible upgrades (with some exceptions such as RAM)

4) No internal expansion. You save a cable with the monitor but you add cables for everything you want to add.

5) Once some component dies you have a very expensive monitor that can't be used for anything.

6) Much like laptops, tablets, and smartphones it's an environmental disaster.

Apple builds appliances made from hardware and software.
