upgrade to 1 gig ram, for a total of about 800 bucks, is that a good buy for a graphics computer? i'm considering getting one, sorry if this has been asked before

Hello jr
What do you mean by graphic computer?

Jr:

You'd best seriously assess what you want to do with your machine. Your motives would best determine what machine to buy. Any type of graphics workstation, be it a Mac or PC, would have to have more muscle than a Mac Mini. The Mac Mini is Apple's marketing posture towards the low cost PC market with an attempt at luring general users (internet and email, mainly) to Apple.

I personally wouldn't consider a Mini for serious work. Just me.

A mini for serious work would not be that great since it has a weak graphics card.

HOnestly I think you can do more GFX work with a psp then a mac mini. Just my 2 cents.

I also think it�s not a graphics computer. Simply not strong enough on the cpu and gfx card side. I see the Mac mini as a perferct computer for surfing the web, emails, chatting, listening to music, watching movies, home bussines, playing some games and all those little privat things. In fact , it's a home computer and in that perhaps better than everything else.

if you like the OS, and only hav $800 go for it

if you've used Winblows for the past 4-5 years, spend a few more bucks on a kick ass system
