I HAVE HAD MY MINI FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW. ITS MY FIRST ONE AND I LOVE IT. I HAD APPLE LAPTOPS PRIOR AND AND IMAC. BUT THIS IS MUCH BETTER FOR ME ANYWAY. ITS HOOKED UP DIRECTLY TO MY 32" FLAT SCREEN AND MY HOME THEATER SYSTEM. SO ITS PERFECT FOR MUSIC AND MOVIE DOWNLOADS AND I STILL GET MY WORK DONE.
