I'm very serious about getting a mac. I'm only 14 so..im on a limited income lol..I've just started saving up so...Yeah..I plan to have enough for a mac mini in feburary..
I have some questions about the mac mini though...Would a 1.25ghz with 1gb of ram be better than 1.42ghz with 512mb of ram? I don't want to spend boat load of money on the computer... Would it be worth it holdign out for a mac intel mini...According to think secret its going to be a DVR mac mini and im not really looking for somthing like that considering i just build a Windows XP pvr running GBPVR...
I've never really used a mac execpt for over the internet with vnc (thanks Phulxy..but its slow over your net..)....Does anyone have good upload willing to let me try it out?
I dont plan on completly switching to apple from the get go...I'm probably going to have to get a kvm or somthing...Considering I just spent about 240 for 2 new kickarse 17inch Samsung CRTS.....I run dual monitors...Would there be anyway to run 2 monitors on a mini?
I thought about getting a mini on ebay with 1.42ghz..1gb ram..80gb hard drive..for 650...but then its not under warranty is it? I think the person upgraded the ram thereself..
Then i thought about getting a powermac g4..dual 1ghz...80gb hd...1.5gb ram..but it has osx 10.3... so id have to spend 800 for computer then another 100 for tiger...
So what should i do...?
