That's an odd request. I admit I was disappointed by the G4 iMac with the G3. I needed something like eMac to learn for a truck driving school Phoenix has. I'm in touch with my educational side, does that count for a low cost G4? :)
A pizza oven... Hm... That would be an interesting present, only send it with birthday e-cards, because the last time I took my girlfriend a cooking device, she asked me if I want her to go in the kitchen and make me a sandwich too. That question was tricky.
I've played a lot of games on my PC before the iPhone was invented, and I was happy with that somebody decided to invent it, because the games are pretty cheap, although the graphics explain the low price. I'd wish I could download the battlestar galactica game on this device, too.
