More on the Mac Mini

The other day I posted about my jonesing for a Mac mini. When I sobered up a bit, I realised that it does have some limitations. The one glaring drawback is that it comes with a base 256 meg of memory. To run OS X and the iLife suite of applications, the minimum RAM should start at 1 GB. Hooking the Mac Mini up with this amount puts it up around $800 bucks. Better to get an iMac. If you need further information, then this article from Macworld is a good start to understanding the Mac mini.

Mac development story.

Why don’t you hear more stories like this from Windows developers. Or do I read the wrong sites? I would guess it is that the Mac developer loves Macs and views the platform in a different way. They love it and write code because what better way to show your appreciation for the platform than to make cool apps for it. Money would be a secondary reason. Anyway, how do you get started writing Mac apps?
