Skip the superdrive and get the memory upgrade. In fact, I'd get the 1gb upgrade knowing you want to run Photoshop. I don't know hoodlum talk, so you may need to get my advice translated.

I always thought they missed out on a lot of opportuniies to make the show a bit funnier. I was wondering why they didn't play with the transporter more often. Tucker would be seen testing the shorter range capabilities of the transporter by…

Quote: Originally posted by iDave No offense but most people do not "build" computers so it doesn't really answer the question. Sounds like a good deal though. But for the person who owns it, it does answer the question because they technical…

[QUOTE]Originally posted by skatman Dave, I do agree with you there. If I "ran the zoo", so to say, I would have put an iMAC in a case twice as big as the Mini and sold it for under $1k. Apple would never do this because it would pretty muc…

Quote: Originally posted by iDave edit, one more comment: Does an average PC as you describe with DVD burner, fast hard disk, etc. really cost $499 or $599? Perhaps they do; I haven't looked. I just built (a few weeks ago now) an average PC f…

Why not just put the mini (sans cover) into another slightly larger container and mount a 160gb 3.5-inch 10,000 rpm drive via ribbon cable? mmmmm.... Now, if only the CPU were upgradable...

Quote: Originally posted by Incoming PCs don't, but Windows does. I have experience with windows since 1992, and it crashes all the time. Over the years, I just managed to get one XP Box and one ME box to run smoothly for a few days. Also, I got…

Quote: Originally posted by Incoming Hi there, AFAIK Dell has only Windows-PCs, which are inferior because of the operating system (still crashes a lot on most pcs). And most users won't be experienced enough to use linux on a pc. So, so…

Quote: Originally posted by neo2049 Thanks...that really helped a lot. Now. if someone out there has any real advice for me... I don't know if it's such a good idea to put in a larger hard drive. That's a pretty small box and I bet the big…

Quote: Originally posted by lundy No problem - buy the 512 model then. Technically speaking, there is no "512mb model". There is a 256MB model that can be upgraded by Apple to 512mb. Of course, that's being pedantic...

Quote: Originally posted by fulmer Did you add the price of XP into that? That would add another $200 for XP Pro.... She's using a previously purchased copy of Win2K. She doesn't like XP. She probably wouldn't like OS-X either, no matter how…
