Which Mac Mini?
« on: August 22, 2008, 04:04:27 AM »
My son wants a Mac Mini so I was going to craigslist it and get him one for Xmas.  

I was thinking of getting the Core Duo or solo because it can run Parallels (sp?) that way he can run XP for games.  He's been getting real interested in running Linux since he sees me using it daily along w/VMWare.  He specifically asked for a Mac Mini which was interesting since I've been wanting to check one out myself.

I'm thinking Intel based over Motorolla.  Is the 1.66ghz Core Solo faster than the G4 version?
