My son Cavan wants to get a Mac Mini [wants our MINI too ;-D]. I suggested that he get the new one instead of the leftover that's on sale. But the top Mini of last generation is almost the same except for FW 400 vs. 800, better video card, 4 vs 5 USB ports, built-in composite and s-video [?]. He has keyboard and mouse; will get more RAM from OtherWorld [2GB ~ $25 shipped].

He has an iMac iLamp, so he needs a monitor--wants a 20" LCD. Affordable suggestions please. Am looking at Newegg: ASUS VW202NR 20", ViewSonic Value Series VA1926w Black-Silver 19"; Beast Buy: Acer - 20" Widescreen Flat-Panel LCD X203H. I'm leaning toward the Acer at Best Buy, partly since it's within walking distance of his house so he can get immediate gratification.

Mini and display recommendations welcome. Thanks

Betty
