Because it's Apple's lowest end machine? You were obviously expecting a $500 machine to beat Apple's laptops which are double and triple the price. It's not Apple's fault you expec…

I love OS X, but I have to agree that the mini is a joke. My 4 year old DA w/1.4 G4 upgrade is at least twice as fast in terms of feel. A $500 Dell w/512mb will run circles around …

Your mistake, my friend, was buying anything other than the basic $499 model. Getting extras for the mini is a waste of money, because once you add up the cost of the extras, you m…
