Oh one more thing, is it really possible for a someone tech savvy user to
get at the dvd drive to replace it on the macbook? it really doesn't look
like there is any way to get inside. I would probably want to take it to a
local shop or something.

Yeah definitely, 8 gigs would be great. I unfortunately purchased a new pc
just a few months ago and went with 4 gig and am regretting it. It was
advertised as having quiet opporation and it is anything but...I hadn't
known about the mac mini server at the time and didn't think I'd need
something that portable either, but circumstances change. There are almost
always regrets w ith computer purchases eventually though I suppose!

I actually sold my MacBook Pro in order to purchase the Mac Mini Server.
You would probably want to upgrade the 4 GB to 8 GB though.
Cheers.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for that input. The screenless mini could be a great option for me
in that case. Have you been happy with it compared to going down the
macbook /imac route?
Brian.

Hello:
That is no longer true. I am using my mini without a screen.
Cheers.

The catch with the minis is that you need a screen for it to run at
optimum levels. Oddly enough, at least with my mini, which is mid 2009,
without a monitor, the system is very sluggish. Many other folks have
noticed this as well. However, I'm not sure if this is also true for the
newest minis or the mini server.
