top end iMac positioning

[grooveattack]

i i have been wondering where the top end imac sits in relation to the rest of apples line up.
for example the top end imac is far from any normal consumer needs (core 2 duo 3GHz for iphoto anyone?) but many pro's only want a macpro for working on.
so where is this machine meant to be? consumer? prosumer (what ever that is)? pro?

i use my imac for video editing and motion graphics and it works like a dream.

Anyone who wants a DEDICATED GPU for gaming or video editing etc.

For me, it's primarily the gaming-quality GPU that doesn't cost thousands and thousands and the fact that it's a pretty powerful machine that's also very compact (while still sporting a desktop-sized display).
