Thanks Dan, I was curious as to how much that would run and that might be my next big purchase, to start out with anyway. Take care and I'll go back to lurking and watching and I'll let everyone know when I get a mac up and running. Thanks and take care.

It is necessary to order those at the time of purchase. Or if you already have them, you will not need to order them. But the Apple Standard keyboard would probably be best. Also, you can get a Wireless keyboard and Mouse. Additionally be aware that the Mac mini has a few other options to consider at purchase. It comes with 1 GB ram but you can order 2 GB. You can get either a Combo CD drive or a Super CD Drive that reads and writes CD and DVD and it is doublelaired. It has 1 internal speaker. And if you want a screen that's also something you can purchase. But again, if you already have either a VGA or DVI ready monitor, you don't need to purchase a screen. Also stereo speakers or headphones can be connected. If you purchase the Mac mini with the Apple Keyboard and Mighty Mouse and 2 GB Memory and the Super Drive as well as a 160 GB hard drive, it will be around $1300.
