It's a device that is pretty much developed to the max unless they can figure out how to add teleportation.

I agree with Crockett above. Basically Apple stuff is crap chinese. I bought an Mac Book a few years ago that was so crappy I had to take it back 4 or 5 times until the geniuses had to replace it with a new one. They have a lot of money, watch how they piss it away.
The sad part is I at the same time I bought the iMac, I also built a PC and I'm posting this message from that PC. This was almost 4 years ago and the only thing that has gone wrong with the PC was one of the Raptor hard drives failed & the memory I originally used had to be replaced. (I've spent maybe $100-150 upgrading the PC over all that time)

When I bought the iMac I think it was something like $2,400 & it was already dead shortly after the warranty ran out. The PC I built at almost the same time cost me about $1700 and it's still kicking strong and it can play BF3 just fine. Meaning it';s far from being obsolete even at it's age.
