I want to get one & do this to it but can't justify the cost at the mo. Would be a relatively cheap way to try out OSX ad see if I want to get a real mac once funds allow.

They are pretty pricey for a netbook; the Avent 2311c (name, from memory) is a better netbook. Not least of all as it has F11 and F12 keys ;)

They are physically bigger though, hence my choice to go with Dell.

OS-X will work on any of them with Atom-based processors ones quite nicely I understand.

Is that a Mini 9 with HSDPA? Does the HSDPA work? Can you HEAR the drool?

I avoided teh HSDPA option; it seemed very expensive and I already have an Orange 3.5G mobile broadband card. I'll eBay for the plug-in module at some point if I needed it, but I suspect that it'll be an XP/Vista only thing :/

Minimum System Requirements:
* The client does not run on a PowerPC (G3/G4/G5) based Macintosh Machines (PowerMac). MacBook laptops are also not supported nor the Mac Mini.

Ah, yes - you see, I have a slightly ripped version of OS-X running on a Dell netbook so not exactly what you'd call a "classic" specificatin ;)

I may be in trouble ;)
