I recently received a M1 Mini and I was impressed with Apple's packaging. The white box the computer was in had plastic wrap around it but everything else was cardboard or paper. The cable was secured with paper, not twist-ties. The white box fits neatly into the brown cardboard box and is protected at the corners.

Also happy with the M1 Mini, which has 16GB but I don't do virtualization. Mostly too many tabs.

Apples packaging is better than most but I doubt they would be able to ship a monitor in the same hard cardboard they ship small products in.

You mean, like the iMac?

I think the iMac packaging involves styrofoam and not just the paper parts used on their laptops and the Mac Mini.

I've ordered a bunch of DELL monitors over the last few years. All came in cardboard packaging with no styrofoam.
