All About the Cricut

I do not know anything about the Cricut machine, I am buying this for a gift. I have heard that the Wild Card cartridge does not work with the original, smaller, machine. Is this true, and is there a way around it? It looks like one of the better cartridges but I do not want to buy it if it will not work on the machine my Girlfriend has.
Thanks!
If this one does not work, are there other ones I should also watch out for that will not work on the original machine?
