Ok I think I might be getting the new mac mini soon. It's the 80gb one with 256mb RAM and a combo drive. Im into video editing and stuff so I wanted to up the RAM on it to 1gb but on apple's website it's $375...thats a CHUNK of change and you might as well just get a regular computer for that much.
I have a few questions though:
Is there any way that I can get RAM for the mac mini somewhere else for cheaper and have the apple store people install it? If so, where can I get 1gb of RAM for less than $250 that will fit the mac mini? What is it called?
Why is it $75 extra for 512mb of RAM and $375 extra for 1GB of RAM?
If I want to get bluetooth, but I dont want to get the internal bluetooth installed can I buy a bluetooth usb adapter and still have bluetooth on the mac mini?
I would like to get a 16x dvd burner, but which one works best with a MAC AND PC? ( I have an IBM laptop and dell desktop at work that I'll be going back and forth with)
Im also looking to get an external hard drive. Which one of those works best with a MAC AND PC?
Thanks yall!
