Customer Rating:      Summary: get one for mothing instead, its expensive Comment: ust amazing, simply great !
Cannot fault this, I love macs, and this is soo small.
Just 6.5 inches square and 2 inches small, Mac mini lets you have more fun with your music, photos, and movies, more quickly and more easily. Enjoy them up close or far away with the included Apple Remote. The most affordable way to Intel Core 2 Duo.

easy to do, many companies you will recognise approve of it !
Customer Rating:      Summary: Surprised and delighted Comment: I bought the mac mini to be a small, neat but limited little home theatre computer - basically just to bring web, email and music to my main TV. It has totally surpassed my expectations. It's pretty much silent and works beautifully - to the extent that it has supplanted my main PC for daily use. The included software is great and covers everything I need. Compared with all the fiddling and mucking about setting up a windows PC, it's easy peasy to set up and you don't need to worry as much about things like anti-virus software etc... if you need MS office compatibility have a look at NeoOffice rather than spending loads of cash if you don't need to. I'd maybe consider upping the RAM on the mini a bit at some point if I start doing things like video processing - this isn't straightforward so if you're buying one then I'd consider having extra RAM put in from the outset. Camcorder connects fine to the built-in firewire port, however one thing missing is TV capture - if you need it, then look up Elgato USB capture devices.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Mini Mac max Fun Comment: I bought the Mac Mini cos I wanted a small computer for web browsing, email, music downloads (iPod) and my photo library. It has met or exceeded my expectation. I have the dual core 1.83 Ghz processor model fully loaded with Ram,I bought the wireless keyboard and mouse. I also run Photoshop Elements, MS Office and Equinox 6. VDU is a BenQ FP93VWwhich is an excellent match. Photoshop is a little slow when processing large images however when measured against the price the performance is excellent. The 4 USB and 1 Firewire ports mean I do not keep having to swap cables every time I want to synchronise something or upload/download photos. The remote control is an excellent feature that enable me to wake my Mac up quickly whenever I need it and send it back to sleep when I dont. If an attractive and compact presentation coupled with decent performance and high useability are your priorities then this one must be very high on your list.
