You can boot any Mac into target disk mode. This is a feature exclusive to Macs. How'd you tag related questions if not mac?

I know they are not equivalent. What I meant is: I don't think it's possible to eliminate [mac] or [mac-hardware] altogether just by splitting it up into for example [imac].

It'd be good to find out whether it's theoretically possible to get a developer to act on a list of question IDs for us and retag automatically. If not, it wouldn't pay off to even collect the list. As for specifically tagging [imac] rather than [mac], I don't know if it's feasible. Renaming [mac] to [mac-hardware] unfortunately seems like the only way to really make it obvious to those who don't read the tag wikis.
