Ok, well I don't know whether I'm wrong or not, I'm only going on
what I'm told regarding these machines and until proven otherwise
I'll certainly stick to what I said.

Wrong again. smmug which is the mac user's group I'm part of here in
Southern Maryland routinely advises would-be purchasers of macs to
buy the minimum from Apple possible to save money. They also know of
and have aftermarket sources for new owners to upgrade memory and
just about everything else inside those mac computers. The cases
appear sealed but in Smartco's Mac room when a mac needs it the cases
magically open under the hands of a well-trained technician to do
those upgrades and repairs.

Ok, well there's a big problem with the Mac Mini in my view, once
you choose the configuration you want then you cannot change it
because the unit is sealed. For example, suppose you order a Mac
Mini with 512 meg of Ram then that's what you've got and that's the
end. I myself would go for an Imac or if you're looking for
something portable, a Macbook.
I just purchased an Imac, I didn't buy the new model I bought the
slightly older one and I got a good deal, I'll be upgrading memory
shortly.
I have a Mac Mini and its prime job these days is an audio
recorder, soon to become video recorder if my research and homework
pay off <smile>.

Hey guys,
Alright, it's time to make the plunge. Any ideas for a starter
mac, that
can do the following.
As long as I can do email, web surfing, and some audio editing, I'm
happy.
As long as voiceover doesn't burp every time you hit a key.
Graphics aren't
my thing obviously. I've heard a lot about the mac minny.
Any thoughts? I think a desktop or something along those lines
would be the
way to go.
Any thoughts?
Sincerest Regards,
Jed
