Default Mac Minis -Any Warnings?


My budget's tightened and I need to cut a few corners. A Mac Mini is good on paper for cost and performance.


Any know problems which would effect my decision to know?


Thanks!

Should be great. Get yourself an external Firewire hard drive with the Oxford 911 or 912 chipset to use as your audio drive and get 1-2GB of RAM and you'll be laughing.


Peace

They ought to be refreshed soon with Core 2 Duo's...that will be a big difference for audio...but in any case, will knock the price of the current ones down 20% or more...

...also may come with a free Leopard upgrade shortly...
