[QUOTE="Hulk_SMASH, post: 261242"] I'm torn between which I should get: Mac Mini: If I get this I'll definately be upgrading it to 2GB, a 7200rpm drive and a T7200 Core2Duo processor. I'll not do it all at once, it'll be gradual over about a year but if costs hold at the level they're at now it'll total $1125(including the cost of the mini itself). The thing I LIKE about the mini is the small size. The other option is to bite the bullet and drop $1099 now on an iMAC with the Core2Duo and 7200rpm drive, monitor, keyboard and mouse already included. The only thing I DON'T like about this option is the built in monitor so if it ever gets stuck pixels or goes out then the whole machine is down until it is fixed even if it's worth it to fix. Any suggestions or other pros and cons I'm missing? [/QUOTE]
