The only difference is that you get a 17inch LCD in the iMac and that you can upgrade the PowerMac. Whats up with that. It just seemed odd when i was choosing my first mac.

    That's why you pay more to have the Power Mac G5...you can upgrade it. The iMac cannot be upgraded beyond the HD, Ram and optical drive.
