I think that the Mini-Mac would make an excellent entry point into the iMac OS X world. There's a lot of power in a small and inexpensive box. Couple that with one's own monitor -- excellent wide-screen monitors can be had for several hundred dollars -- and you have a system that does pretty much everything an iMac does, with the exception of disk space, and that's easily remedied with an external drive. If one's leery of perceived manufacturing problems with the iMacs, the mini-Mac would be a great alternative for a couple years.If wondering, I was attracked to the Mini-Mac.
The only problem I've had with my iMac was a software problem --- easily remedied.
