The iMac is indeed for the entry-level consumer (like any sub-$1000
computer), but it's FAR, FAR, FAR from a "technophobe" gadget, and it's
FAR, FAR, FAR from useless.
If you need PCI expansion you don't buy an iMac or an iPaq or any other
non-PCI Mac or PC. There are different markets and different computers
for them. People buy iMacs and cheap non-PCI PCs because they want to
save money and they know that they personally will never need a PCI slot.
Lest this gets into a PC vs. Mac debate, I'll leave it at that.
