The PC & Mac versions of those graphics cards are different..

And i never said that the iMac or any other model of computer is for everyone..

"I have no use for any of these technologies and really couldn't afford the upgrade expense of upgrading all of my "obsolete" AGP and PCI cards, ram, ethernet, wireless, etc..."

Ethernet is usually today integrated in the logic board, when you want to upgrade your microprocessor you usually have to upgrade also your mother board, Airport Express and RAM is removable in any Mac, the same for hard disk and optical unit..

In the case of the iMac, its an all-in-one unit, so you can't use pci/agp cards, if you want pci/agp upgrading possibilities you have to go with a PowerMac...

I wouldn't like to have a x800 or a 6800 ultra in an old mother board with an old processor, is a little stupid because it'll be a big bottleneck..

Will you put a agp 8x card in a 4x/2x slot? How much do you upgrade your computer that you need those constant upgrading capabilities?

I can understand that the actual models of Macs aren't created for your needs, but this has nothing to do with the price of the Macs.. It has to do with configurability.

I think i sound like a sales person because my english is limited, so sometimes i don't know the adequate word to say some things.. Sorry ;) I'm spanish, and to Eugenia doesn't like the times i post in spanish..
