Dave... You won't have any problems using PS or any other Mac software you'd
care to put on it. It's a regular Mac running Mac OS X, just like their
other offerings.

My only concern about the Mini is the memory situation: Apparently, the RAM
is not user upgradeable, which means you'll need to pay an outrageous $425
to Apple for 1GB of RAM. Also, there's only one slot, so the box maxes out
at 1GB. Not a lot of room for expansion, which really relegates this unit to
more mundane tasks.

For a primary workstation, I think their other computers offer a better
value.
