You'll be fine with a Mac Mini, I think. Mac Minis are desktop
machines, just on the lower end. You will ahve wireless capability
with a Mac Mini, just as you would with a MacBook or pretty much any
other Mac model. The new version of the OS comes out some time in
October, but for all we know it could be the 31st. Unles syou
specificly need more speed, RAM, Hard Drive, or other specific
features of the MacBook, its probably more than you need. Just
learning Mac OS X and VoiceOver, you'll do fine with a Mini.

I am planning on buying a Macintosh computer as soon as the new
operating system comes out. The reason i need a Mac is so that I
can learn enough about it to support other Mac users here at the
Math Department at the University of Wisconsin.
Two questions:
1. When will the new version of MacOS be out?
2. Can i get by with a Mac mini? Will I be able to learn enough
about MacOS to help other users if I only have a Mac mini?
I'm sure I could get a Mac laptop, right? That would essentially be
the same as having a desktop machine. Plus, it would allow me to
learn about configuring wireless for the Mac. So I will probably
get a laptop if the mini doesn't cut it.
