My photo computer is a Mac Mini with a 2.4 GHz Core2 Duo processor, 8 gig RAM,
and a spinny internal hard drive (my pics are on a 1T external drive).
I have been considering upgrading it with a 480 GB internal SSD and 16 GB RAM.
I figure that would cost $600-$700.
Is it worth it, or is the performance of the i5 and i7-based Minis so stellar
that it's wortth spending the extra money?
6-700 will get you a long way toward a used mid-2011 to late-2013 iMac with
a quad i5 or i7, a good GPU, and capacity for 32GB of RAM, with a rather
nice display as a bonus, even if it isn't "retina"; the main downside is
they are not worth the trouble to replace the hard drive, so plan eventually
for a Thunderbolt case/adapter for an SSD
