Looks like the same machine that my local indie store was selling, but now cheaper because the wireless and boosted memory extras are thrown in.

Faster hard drive, better graphics card?

Doesn't look like it. Too badl

Bleh. Very indifferent to a very mundane update.

Very true...512MB is nice, but they should have done a little more.

At least 64mb graphics. All Consumer Macs should have 64mb, while the Pro lineup standard at 128

Forget "optical audio output", only the PowerMacs have that! (and iMacs?)

Anyway, of course all the specs are the same: it's only a RAM/BTO options upgrade on the line (so, no new CPU/GPU since it's the same motherboard as before).
