Very happy with my new Mac Mini!

"After a horrible experience with a Vista system I bought last year, I vowed to never but a Windows PC again. I just couldn't pass up this little gem. I have a small photography business and this Mac Mini has been a wonderful addition to my workflow. I cannot begin to tell you how nice it is to actually sit down to work on a computer knowing that it will actually work! No more blue screens of death, no more ..." Read Full Review »

"I just bought this from B&H and I have to say, I'm impressed! Although this is my first Mac, I have been using PCs (with DOS, OS2, Windows, Linux, you name it!) for the last 18 years, so I did not expect to be surprised by a new OS.

"Good and least expensive way to start developing for the iPhone, iPod Touch and Mac. Since the iPhone Software Development Kit requires an Intel based Mac, you can't go out and purchase an older Mac for this purpose. Just remember that it does not come with a keyboard, mouse, monitor or speakers ( …"  Read Full Review »
