Scott,
I think your point about the mini as a good entry point for potential switchers 
is an excellent one. I never would have laid out the $ for an Imac. We have 
plenty of monitors around here, so buying a monitor was not a issue We also 
have mice, so ditto there, no need to get one. Yes, I did have to buy a 
keyboard, because the keyboard we have are all ps2, so that was a nonstarter. 
But the trade off there is I got one I like the feel of better than what comes 
standard these days on the Imac, and its Bluetooth to boot, so I am 
anticipating having more uses for it than just with my mini. I got the middle 
model of the mini, not the very cheapest one, because I wanted a larger hard 
drive and the 4gb of ram. For what I want, web surfing, email, word processing 
and music listening and organizing, the mini is fine. the only thing I haven't 
done yet that I want to do is scan and ocr, but that is a function of me not 
being able to find a satisfactory efficient solution for the Mac, rather than a 
limitation of this particular Mac. 

Mary
