I was thinking about buying a Mac Mini, I've never owned a Mac and wanted to try one with out spending a lot of money. I am going to try and use the DVI connection to hook it up to my HDTV and use the bluetooth keyboard/mouse. I think it would be good enough to surf and check e-mail on. I wouldnt mind eventually trying to switch to a Power Mac later if I like it. My PC is a AMD 2500+ Barton with 1 gb of RAM, everything is very quick. My friend has a similar P4 system and uses a Power Mac at his work. He is a graphic artist and uses photo shop at home and at work. I'm not sure exactly how old the Mac is but he says it seems a lot slower than his PC. I think it has 512 or 1gb of Ram. I was wondering if there was something he might be doing wrong or if he needs to tune up his system some how. I just had always heard that a Mac was faster in photo shop period. Someone told him he would have to get at least 4gb of RAM to really take advantage of the system but that seems a bit extreme.
