A good Mac for those who want to trade up from their Windows PC, just unplug everything from your Windows box and plug it into your new Mac (make sure you have a USB keyboard and mouse, however!) - except that this particular model is a bit slow by modern (2008) standards, you should really look for one of the faster models of this computer available here. If you do not have a monitor that you currently like, buy an iMac instead, as the built-in monitor on those computers is very sharp and clear.

you can get a new one with specs that blow away this computer for only 100-200 more. This is great for everyday computing. Internet, docs. But if you run editing software, record and edit music, or are a download junkie. Spend the extra 100 or take the time to shop around. Has tiger OSX which was great for PRO TOOLS , but half gig memory won't cut it.
PS///you risk breaking computer changing the memory, very delicate, made in mac mini' early stages.

Perhaps I have the wrong tool for the job - I occasionally design posters and edit photographs and I wanted the mac mini to 1) investigate a possible switch to mac and 2)try out a dual core processor.
The machine does fine for web browsing and document editing, but open up photoshop, illustrator, and a 24 x 36" poster at 300 dpi, and this machine grinds to a halt. I literally spend hours waiting on the machine to open, save, resize, etc. files - If I get too much going at once I'll just have to sit with a beach ball for several minutes...
I sometimes get error messages about not having enough memory to perform certain tasks.
About the dual core - perhaps it's because of other bottlenecks, but I can tell absolutely no difference versus single core. The machine is still as sluggish and non-responsive as a single core when an intensive task is running in the background.
Obviously this machine wasn't designed for such a task - I plan to upgrade to a macbook pro soon. Just take it from someone who's tried that this machine won't handle graphic art.
What it has been is an excellent introduction to Mac OSX and its differences from windows. I suppose that's exactly what this machine was designed for - basic tasks and introduction to mac, in hopes of converting the user to pricier apple machines. If that's its purpose, it's been very successful!

I am a Mac addict, of course. I love everything about it. It runs cool, fits into a small space, runs properly, no glitches, etc. I've attached two external drives to it for more storage, this works great for me so I can take my portable drive when I need to. I have my stereo, printer, monitor, hub, high speed modem, and more hooked up to it. Love my Mac!!!

The 2nd day delivery delivered a defect product. Took several weeks and a lot of emails to get a replacement. Then I found new version posted on the website right after I got the replacement.
That means it took me several weeks to get an outdated product even though I used 2nd day delivery service. What a bad experience.
