I just think they must cripple the Minis somehow. I expected it to run like OS9 on my G4, but it just feels slow. Programmes take a while to open and there's a delay before windows appear. Not complaining mind you; it's good enough. ;D

Yes, it could be the slower internal hard drive, like Cory mentioned (the mini has a laptop 5400 RPM hard drive...). Have you tried booting off an external FireWire drive? The performance should increase significantly...
