...so if Apple doesn't want to be trampled in the gaming market they should give the option of a better graphics card in the iMac.


Perhaps Apple's decision not to include an upgradable graphics card is a clear indicator of the priority they place on games.

That's not a bad point. And it's worth remembering theat Apple has fought the notion that their computers were "toys" for years.
But I suspect that the reason we don't see upgradable graphics cards in iMacs is related to heat and space issues.

Exactly, that's why I said that Mac should create a cheaper PowerPC with a single processor and cheaper parts (a la iMac/eMac) in order to get the attention of us.
