    thanx but to be honest the emac is a bit out of date and lacks in the speed department (it has a g4 for petes sake!) so i have found a core duo mini with keyboard and mouse and a 17" TFT monitor for only £692. i think this is the mac that will soon join my collection, but just one question, what are the mac mini's speakers like? thanx

    They aren't great. I think the powerbooks speakers are better. You can get decent speakers for cheap though.



    I'm got a core duo mini (in the kitchen) and a 1.42g4 as a network model, so those are the only models I have tested the speakers on.

    I actually think my mbp sounds better than it.
