[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1274984, member: 8287"] What does she do on her MB? If just email, Web, Chat and basics like that, 2GB will be fine. If she is a power user than no way! I had 1GB free at the desktop but it was spotlighting the drive which takes RAM. Will check again tomorrow morning but it was fine. BTW, SL on my iMac C2D late 2007 iMac with 2GB with the way I use a computer was always running out of ram and swapping! The Mini with Lion seems no worse in that way than SL with 2GB. I am a power user though. Most average computer users are not! :D [/QUOTE]
