Hi, I am planning to get one of the new mac minis. It comes with 2-GB of RAM, in the form of a pair of 1-GB chips. Are both of these user-replaceable and easy to access in the new minis?
Is there any disadvantage or loss of performance if the two memory chips are not identical? If not, I might just replace one with a 4-GB chip. Otherwise, I guess I could just replace both. If the mini is used mainly as a media player, do I gain anything by upgrading the 2-GB of RAM? If not, then maybe I will just stick with 2-GB for a while. Do these minis work just fine in a headless configuration? I assume I can access it wirelessly from my Mac Pro. As a media center, do I just need the power cord, an HDMI cable to the HDTV, and an Apple remote? I think I have an old style Apple remote (from my 2009 MacBook Pro) around here somewhere. Is that all I need to control the mini for playing videos? I think I heard that Front Row (which I have never used) is no longer included (in Lion). Can I simply use the Snow Leopard version?
