[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1631935, member: 56379"] No that's not what I'm saying.:) Because if I said that…then I would have to say that EVERYONE thinking of buying an Apple computer should upgrade it to the max (which is not right for everyone). What I'm saying is (in response to your question about upgrading the ram, cpu, and gpu now or later)…and being able to do it cheaper yourself later. That you: - cannot upgrade the RAM later (if it's a 21" iMac) - cannot upgrade the CPU later - cannot upgrade the GPU later Now if you: - NEED the performance of an upgraded CPU - NEED the performance of an upgraded GPU - NEED the performance of upgraded RAM …and if these upgrades are within your budget. Then yes…get them!:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
