Mac Mini: not up to snuff for professional use

1.0 / 5.0
Pros:
The least expensive Macintosh, small compact size
Cons:
Hard drive went bad, superdrive went bad, RAM related problems
Bottom Line: The Mac Mini is the most unreliable Macintosh computer I have ever used. Many hardware failures and RAM related problems, just in the first year of use.
Review: I do graphic design at a book publishing company in a Macintosh environment. Over the past ten years...

Pros:
Super Fast, great OS, excellent support
Cons:
Doesn't come with anything. (hard ware)
Bottom Line: great buy, don't confuse it with something under powered just because it has the word Mini in the name. I would recommend this Mac to anyone.
Review: Let me start off by saying that most people think since the Mac Mini cost less and that its mini mea...

3.0 / 5.0
Pros:
Great wireless, size, quiet, Apple Geniuses/Stores,
Cons:

5.0 / 5.0
Pros:
Everything you'd expect from an Apple at a great price!
Cons:
The 1.83 processor only slows down when under significant loads.
Bottom Line: You can't beat the reliability, quality, and user-orientated nature of Macintosh. If you've already got a monitor and keyboard, go for the Mini and save a bundle!
Review: After weeks of my PC randomly freezing and rebooting, I decided to invest in a Mac. As I looked at A...

Pros:
Cute size, low noise, great design, relatively inexpensive, OS X, a stable OS.
Cons:
Limited internal expansion, shared video RAM, costs more than comparable Windows PC.

Review: Don't get me wrong. The Mac mini is a great little computer, but in its base configuration, it's not...
