That's why I'm suggesting the Mini really, cause it's got just about as much power as the average user will need, and with Zorgman being a coder ( I'm assuming ) he's not going to need a workhorse, just a nice machine with OSX.

This also eliminates BS caused by the screen or any other built in parts, and the mini is much more user friendly to open, replace parts etc.

the specs on the new mini are pretty damn reasonable for the price, and then of course in the event that Zorgman, or any new switcher HATES osx ( it happens ) they haven't got in too deep.
