But *is* the video all that bad? It seems to support more features in Tiger.
The interface is probably PCI Express, so better/faster than AGP. The Radeon
card in the old PPC Mini's was a pathetic excuse at best. At least the Intel
card will get direct support and better drivers. Memory is cheap, so shared
memory is not a real issue, and I suspect it is probably faster too as the
data doesn't have to fly up and down the BUS quite as much, especially with
direct BLITs to video memory.

If the Mini ran lots of other OS, then yes it would be a PITA, but as it
probably won't run much past Vista and Linux, you'll probably not really see
much difference.
