Apple Just Revived the G4 iMac... Kinda

Apple skipped the keynote and quietly dropped a whole smart home lineup at its invite-only Welcome Home event on October 13. We go product by product: HomeView, Apple's $299 tilting smart display that knows who's looking at it; the Apple Home Collection of cameras, locks, doorbells, and thermostats built with LG and Schneider Electric; the HomePod mini 2 and its album-art Sound Glow; and the new Apple TV 4K, whose A19 chip has us dreaming about a tiny living room game console.Plus: Canadian Thanksgiving, reviving Dan's PC with a new power supply, progress on our cocktail arcade cabinet, and a Show and Tell with two G4 iMacs, the lamp-shaped ancestor of HomeView.Prices mentioned are in USD.CHAPTERS0:00 Intro0:30 Headlines: Apple's Welcome Home event1:36 HomeView: Apple's first smart home hub17:08 Apple Home Collection (LG and Schneider)24:36 HomePod mini 229:24 Apple TV 4K (2026)39:07 How was your week?39:41 Fixing Dan's PC41:43 Cocktail arcade cabinet progress42:25 Show and Tell: G4 iMacs46:31 Outro and patron shoutoutWelcome to our newest patron, Graham!
