Still learning wordpress. I'm not really offended, by the way, just poorly thought out humour. :) Have a good one, guys. Oh hey, didn’t know my blog did that. Still learning wordpress.

It's a cheap machine to do with whatever you want. Is there a site by the name of pimpmymini.com? Might be a good idea of the Mini Cooper hasn't cornered that one yet...

If you need that much oomph, you're not in the mini niche. Mow some lawns and get a last-gen iMac G5 on clearance. The Mac mini is not an iServe, any more than it’s a Doom3 box.

If it's just a cheap Apple computer, then adding a similar sized external drive isn't going to be a huge deal. Even then, it's still many times smaller than something like a PowerMac G5. Fully agree with the gigabit ethernet port. but again, it's just a tiny 'entry level' machine. for $500, I won't complain too much. I guess it just depends what your purpose for the Mini is.

Why buy a mini Mini, only to make it bigger again? The real shame is that there's no Gigabit Ethernet port - making server-based storage somewhat of a lame duck.
