I totally agree with you. I was looking at that combo drive model, and thinking, "d*** that's a sweet deal." A 1 Ghz G4, combo, 60 gigs, and AE ready for 1k?? Very nice, apple, very nice indeed. It's nice to have a low end model at only $800, but the combo is really a great deal. My only complaint is, as others have said, 128 RAM is a joke. But that's quite easy and cheap to upgrade, especially if you don't pay apple's sky-high prices.
p.s. it's sweet that they got a 133 bus.
