Dear Folks:
I haven't seen the inside of a Mini in person
yet, but I've been reading about them a bit.
>From what I gather, a Mac Mini's performance is,
as mentioned on this list before, akin to
current G4 PowerBooks (though not the ones that
have just come out, perhaps). Getting as much
RAM in these will certainly help a lot, too.
Putting a hard drive in these has been described
by some as
not for the faint-of-heart, but to me it looks
about the same as messing around inside a
PowerBook. Best I can tell, if one goes slow
they'll be fine.
Here are some links I've found informative that
cover some of what folks here have been
commenting on.
