[QUOTE="Chemadian, post: 1319593, member: 211163"] I have the 2.5ghz i5 mac mini and although i don't use the photo editing programs you mentioned i do use some fairly heavy programs such as filemaker, dreamweaver, etc. To be honest i found the mini to be a bit sluggish with these programs at first but when upgraded to 8GB ram it really seemed to help. So in my case the i5 has sufficient processing power it just needed a little boost in ram in order to run faster. Of course there are other ways to get increased performance but for the relatively cheap price of upgrading ram it seemed like a good place to start. cheers [/QUOTE]
