Great introduction to Mac OS / Home Theater PC
Review of Apple Mac mini Core Duo 1.83 GHz by alphamusic

Advantages: Price, performance, design, OSX 10.5, Windows with Bootcamp, HTPC, remote controll
Disadvantages: Limited upgradability

I recently upgrade from a 1.5Ghz G4 stealth upgrade Mac Mini to the Core 2 Duo 1.83 Ghz mini and I am very impressed with the performance improvements. With Xbench the Core 2 Duo was approximately twice as fast as the G4 on many tests. The Mac Mini has a very small form factor 6.5"x6.5"x2" which makes it well suited as a Home Theater PC (HTPC) or for desktop use where space is at a premium. I primarily use the mini as an everyday computer with some ... Read review

Advantages: Small and good value
Disadvantages: not as powerful as most other Macs

...it does come with an apple remote, which is very useful, it does not work on all the online media players (does work with quick time and various things such as itunes. As well as the remote it comes with a DVI to VGA adapter, this allows you to connect a three row adapter or VGA to the DVI port on the back. It will work with any keyboards, mice or most other peripherals so there is no need to spend unnecessary amounts of money on apple products like ... Read review

Advantages: Small but powerful, its a great starter apple,
Disadvantages: Limited scope for upgrade,

...that I should get an apple computer, but stubbornly I always resisted as I thought I should stick to what I know. That was until I used an apple mac. This mini core duo is an inexpensive way to get onto the apple ladder, and you wont be disappointed. Straight out of the box, it looks very stylish and would compliment any home cinema or music system. For such a small unit, the apple packs quite a punch, with ports such as USB and ethernet, wi-fi ... Read review

Mac Mini is a Great Computer. Very small and compact, very attractive design as you have expected form Apple. No more heavy and clunky desktop taking over space, this is a great solution for small home and office space. It's also easily become portable. It's as good as it gets. It has all the great feature that G5 power Mac and MacBook Pro. OSX is very dependable and very seldom it ever have trouble shoot. Mac Mini has excellent features and compatible with creative softwares. It also shines when it comes to it's graphic quality and creative projects. Apple computer tends to be bit over priced, but Mac Mini is affordable and it delivers all the things you need.

We have had no problems getting programes for it and run the normal microsoft office, photoshop etc but also have the added benefit of Mac programmes. Most printers and cameras come with mac option for installation so they haven't ... Read review

Small unit, huge performance!
Review of Apple Mac mini Core Duo 1.83 GHz by luketheking123

Advantages: Very small and tidy package with great power
Disadvantages: Graphics card cant be upgraded

One of the best apple products on the market (especially the Intel core chip ones). I work in a design studio and have had many of these set up with adobe Creative Suite 3 for our designers. They offer a lot of power for such a small unit and can be hidden out of the way easily. They come complete with a DVI to VGA convertor so you can use any PC or Mac monitor with no drivers necessary. They all also come pre-installed with Tiger 10.4 and some pretty ... Read review

Review of Apple Mac mini Core Duo 1.83 GHz by rocker_1990

Advantages: everything ever!
Disadvantages: none

Hi, Mac mini's are brilliant, i have to make it clear that I do not own one, but I use them almost every day! They were designed to be small, so the best thing is that they arn't working as a small machine they work well because they were designed to. What I mean is they didn't say, let's put a 1.8ghz processor in a small computer, they said, let's make a small computer i know we'll put in a 1.8ghz prosessor! It's about the size of a small ...

The speed of apples in a whole are amazing as there are hardly any viruses and if you are worried about of not being able to run Microsft Office they have a special Office for Mac or the other option is to run parallel which runs Windows aswell with the comforts and speed of the Mac, you dont have to take this option.

Brilliant little fun computer
Review of Apple Mac mini Core Duo 1.83 GHz by LucyB76

Advantages: No bugs, major crashes, fast and loads of fun!
Disadvantages: Can't think of any....

I was absolutely blown away by this little computer! My partner, who is a graphic designer, bought this to replace the PC we had and as soon as I got on it I was away! It is so user friendly and easy to navigate. I have learned so much through just using and I don't get irritated by it because it hardly ever crashes. When it does 'crash' or 'freeze up' it's very easy to rectify as you just click 'force quit' and it solves the problem! Brilliant! No ... Read review
