Other than the fact that this is a blatant advertisment and most poker programs aren't compatible with OS X, the Mac Mini is a completely worthless buy on its own.

I don't see any other mac mini threads so i'm going to leave this thread alone even though it was a spam.

As far as the Mac Mini's go while at 1.2-1.4GHZ and 512MB ram they aren't a very compelling machine for most of us they look like a decent machine for someone with space problems that doesn't need anything more than word processing + web browsing.

I'd say it's absolutely perfect for a web developer like me. I'm able to fit it in between my two 2001FP's, and it contains all the features i need.

[/ QUOTE ]It's not that the Mini isn't useful to some people, it's that you can get a better performing PC for less (monitor included, which you don't get with a Mini). The Mini is essentially a (low end) laptop packaged into an, albeit small, desktop system.

I suppose if you really want OS X or a space saver design, it warrants a purchase, but I can't ever see spending my money on a laptop that has none of a laptop's convienence.
