I am considering the mini! My current environment at home is:

1. Win98 - not really used much - mostly sits there occupying desk space. It is probably 4 years old (Tiger Direct). 1x 80 gb hard drive, CDRW

2. WinXP 3 years old (?) Tiger Direct AMD - my primary computer - 2x80 gb hard drives DVD

3. Red Hat 9.0 Linux Tiger Direct AMD - 2x80 gb hard drives, php, apache, mysql, perl.

4. Panasonic Toughbook CF51 - just switched to this laptop since it has Centrino and the battery lasts 4+ hours versus the HP 17" laptop I had when the battery would last 1.5 hrs (usually it would die before my flight requires laptop to be turned off).

5. Apple 2e - 80 column card, 2400 baud modem, external floppy drive, purchased December 1983.


Considering the mini just to mess around with a Apple again. Its been a long time.
