CPU?  Where?  I have yet to see a CPU upgrade for the iMac.

There was for the old CRT imacs

Hard drive and memory sure...  
Optical drive?  Again, I've never seen an internal upgrade, perhaps they are out there but they are not cost effective (example buying an OEM superdrive)

Dunno

Video card?  You didn't answer this, because again it's not offered.

Again CRT imacs

You proved the point.  The only way to upgrade the consumer models is to trash them and buy another one.  They are closed systems, which in general is bad.  On a laptop I can understand, because they are specialized components.  But, on a desktop computer it's unacceptable.

It´s perfect from the companys p.o.v
Bill Gates wishes he could do it. So does Genesi and Eyetech. just look at development of cars. or mobilephones.

Apple did it right the first time, bring back the Newton!
