Mac Mini

I finally got my Mac Mini, After weeks of agony!
G4 1.42 GHz CPU
1GB DDR SDRAM (I got it from a 3rd-party vendor and upgraded with a putty knife – saved $90!);
Combo drive (DVD writer is useless, just got a 250GB firewire drives);
Bluetooth + wireless keyboard and mouse;
80GB internal disk;
Total paid: under $800
Getting iPod connected to Mac Mini: priceless!

Thanks Hanbing for the encouragement and advice! I wouldn’t dare to pry open the spanking new Mac the first day I got it with the putty knife otherwise.

    I would say that Mac OS X is a valuable thing to have.

    I still still find nice things that work better than I expected.

    The most recent one being after installing “Fink”, the machine can function much like a Debian machine, managed via “apt-get”.

    Try insert a DVD; Play it a bit; eject and insert it again, you will be prompt to whether to resume from where you stopped. :)

    Try the iPhoto slide show with tunes from your music library. And you can rotate, modify during the slide show.
