Larry, It looks like most of your questions have been answered quite thoroughly. I would just like to pipe in for quesiton three.
Besides the obvious things like the keyboard and monitor there is actually a huge difference in processor power. The MacMini is a G4 whereas the iMac is a G5. That in itself is quite huge. The numbers are sometimes deceiving when you see from 1.25 or 1.42 GHz G4 and a 1.9 GHz G5. I would venture to say that you *would* notice a difference if you were using the iMac. The iMac also comes with a much bigger HD and the DVD burner. In my opinion, you get a far better bang for your buck with the iMac although if you already have a keyboard and monitor that you would use for the Mini and finances are a factor then you should go with what works for you and your budget. Hope this helps. Later... Tim Kilburn FACTS Department Head Father Mercredi Community High School Fort McMurray, AB Canada (780) 799-5725
