iMac GT130 or 4850!? Need advice/help!

I keep forgetting ...

My ONE complaint with the current version... I hate the itty bitty keyboard. For my money it was worth it to save the $45 on the video card which performs better than I could have expected and used it to buy the full sized keyboard.

If you purchase online you can get the keyboard with the numeric keypad at no additional cost.

I would get the HD 4850... That's if you can wait the extra 3-4 weeks. If not then just get GT 130

Personally, 4-5 weeks is a small price to pay for a video card I'll be using for 2 years!

Unfortunately, my little brother won't get his present on his birthday but a couple of weeks later... 🙁

0087215, I got into the same situation. I wanted to give my brother a MB as a birthday present. It was, however, heavily rumored that a new MB will come out soon. Of course I did not want to give him soon-to-be old MB and disappoint him when the new one came out. So, I made a coupon (with my terrible drawing of a MB) that said I will exchange the coupon with a new MB when it came out. I put it into an envelope and gave it to him. It took a month until it was actually announced but how eager and excited he was during that time!

Haha... great move... thx for your suggestion! I am still very undecided what to do: on one side I want to make my bro happy on his birthday, on another side I want to give him a new iMac which he'll be able to use for games and other tasks without any problem...

Thx anyway.... it was funny... 🙂
