I'm looking at the mac mini to use for my home theatre--music, streaming video, download movies, etc.

So far I've settled on the 2.5 GHz dual core with 4GB RAM. Is there any advantage to upgrade to 2.7 GHz, and/or 8 GB RAM?

Hi, I bought one about 3 months ago to do the same and run it through my Denon receiver. It works a treat and I did upgrade the processor as its something you can't do in the future but the ram is very expensive from apple and you can always upgrade this yourself for a fraction of the cost. One thing I have noticed though is if you have a large tv 50" or so everything does look pretty small, other than that I love it.

Feel free to ask me any other question about my experience with it.

Thanks for the reply.

Can you be more specific about what looks small?

Hi,

Hard to explain but looking at text or iTunes on a big tv is just a lot smaller, I sit about 3ft away and it's just not like sitting in front of a monitor.
