You know, some people simply don\'t need a 6800 or a X800.

I built me a new system and went with an 9600 since I didn\'t need anything bigger.

And other gpu\'s would heat up more, this is a silent machine.
I recently discovered that my ass is the key to the universe.....now I must fight to protect my ass from those who might abuse it!!!

Will agree with that. When I was not into PC gaming, it never bothered me that there was bigger and better machines than my lowley iMac DV.

I\'ve always considered going Mac but I never really had the balls to do it, I have this feeling that I will lack the ability to do something.

Why is it a joke?

It includes a 20" widescreen monitor.

How much does a 20" flat monitor cost?

SHEET! they\'re expensive! :p

http://www.pcmarket.com.au/productdetails.php?ProductID=283

granted that one\'s 24 inches. can\'t really find prices for 20 inch ones, but I imagine they wouldn\'t be much cheaper. :p that\'s probably why the companies that make them aren\'t up front about the price. still.. you\'d be able to get a much more powerful PC for the same price (of the iMac, I mean), albiet less purdy.

If you had $2,000 to spend on a computer, what would you go with?

A FX-53, gig 1 DDR memory and a 68000 GT to start.

Still, iMac\'s arent that bad, I enjoyed mine up until I got bit by the PC bug.
