I've heard in fact it's nothing more than a fancy puddy knife.

Ah, well remember, the Imac as good as it is, would not be
considered a user serviceable machine either. Apple states there
are no user serviceable parts other than the ram. No machine is
excluded from being disassembled, but like I said in an earlier
post, its not recommended unless you truly know what your doing. As
much as I love tearing things apart, I've started disassembling
mine and have stopped after the first couple of screws. I need
another machine before I get serious about trying. grin

Well the Imac doesn't have a separate monitor, the monitor is in
the unit, yes ok blind people don't use monitors however if
there's any trouble they're handy to have around <smile>.
Now using a Mac Mini without a monitor isn't straight forward, I'm
told that you have to have one connected.
Finally, you've underlined my main objection about the Mac Mini
when you said make sure you get plenty of RAM in it, it annoys me
that this machine comes sealed so therefore you have to be precise
about the configuration you get.

I think the Mac Mini is an excellent choice, especially if you are
totally blind and therefore don't need a monitor, or else have a
spare monitor sitting around some place. Make sure to get plenty
of RAM in it. I think you can take it to an Apple Store and have
the memory upgraded...not sure...but you won't want to do that. I
have an older Mac Mini that still works like a champ and I think
they are great machines for newcomers to the Mac. After a while
you will likely want to move up to the MacBook or iMac side of
things. Mac Minis are a great place to start, though.
