Donny,
Keep in mind that at the current time, the Mac (ttbomk) doesn't really have any games or applications which would substantially stress a 9200. Not my choice of video either, but I understand why it was chosen.
If you need more than a 9200 video card will offer, you really wouldn't be looking at a $499 mac in the first place.

Yep..
For Average gamer.. Getting both Ps2 and Xbox would be cheaper and even left money for purchasing good games on them.. And for those Hyper-high end gamers? Mac? G4? with Radeon9200.. :-D :-D
But.. IMHO this one looks really good as a First-time Mac .. I've been looking alternativies for windowse years.. (been using Linuxes,Os/2,BeOs,Mos etc) and this one definitely looks like nice offer to get closer look of Mac OsX...
Secondly.. Fisrt time in years: This on looks about the right machine I could recommend for my parents (both over 65) who never had any computer on their own. Compact, nice looking, had plenty of usefull SW bundled in with (allmost) bulletproof OS.
