I'm thinking about buying a Mac Mini as an introduction to the Mac "system". I don't have any specific goals in mind, I just want to get some hands on with the MacOS. The problem I'm encountering is that I don't have a clue how much memory or processor I need. With Windows and Linux, I have an idea, but I'm clueless on the Mac OS.
FWIW, I'm comfortable on a 1.5ghz AMD processor, 768meg of RAM, an 80gig HDD, 64mb video card, and Win2k. I *think* the low end dual core Mac Mini will suit me, but I want to make sure I'm not buying too little. My expected uses will be basic word processing, general Internet (web, mail, ftp, etc), and maybe some light video editing (that is currently being handled by the system above).
