I had been waiting for january MWSF since september for a new computer or monitor, but today I snapped and bought a max upgraded mini with a 23"...
I hope I wont regret it.
So far the mac mini is impressing me, and it seems faster than my 1.6ghz pentium 4 (except the video card, hurg it suck). I'll have my monitor tommorow, cant wait
Quick question, is it possible to transfer my applications from my ibook to the mini with usb instead of the recommended firewire?
Ive been unlucky and got the old model, but I dont mind, I just wanted something to run osx on my nice monitor ; Still, I would be happy if I could manage to load a few instruments in Kontakt 2 and stream them from sibelius 4, so far it works on the inner soundcard, but I have to test how much it can take and compare it to my pc. Now I got a mess of 3 keyboard and 3 mouses, 2 crt and the upcomming 23" ACD on my desk... Gotta get rid of some stuff before I get a tumor or something from all the radiations.
Edit, I tested ut2004 demo and it didnt run too bad in high resolution with the details lowered, had a frame rate above 25 fps in 1600x1200 so 1900x1200 should be near the limit of playable.
