Ive owned an iBook G4 for quite some time and it's time for an upgrade. I am planning on purchasing an iMac with these specs.
21.5-inch LED-backlit glossy widescreen display
4GB memory
1TB hard drive
8x SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)
ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics with 256MB memory
Now I looked on the site and it said that updates were coming soon but from what i've seen in the forums and from friends who use this site religiously that could mean multiple months before even the slightest little update. I am wanting to use this computer for gaming purposed on top of my work. I am particularly looking at Lord of the Rings Online. I would like to run the game on high or ultra high if possible. I have a few questions.
1.) Will this computer be able to play LOTRO on high? I am going to use bootcamp.
2.) Should I wait until a new update comes out or will it be important enough for my needs as a gamer?
3.) If I buy it now and they update the graphics can I send my computer in and buy the upgrade from them?
Thanks for any help. Oh and purchasing anything but an apple is out of the question. I understand they are better for gaming but I will be excommunicated from work if I do
