Trebz said:I am considering getting one of th new core duo minis. The most intensive activities I would use it for would be video editing DV from a camcorder and the occasional DIVX or iPod video conversion.
Do you think the mini's are too underpowered for this? Would getting 2 GB RAM help any?
If you're planning on using iMovie then the Mini CD would be more than enough with 1-2GB of RAM. If you want to use FinalCut Pro then you'd do best to wait a while until Universal Binaries come out for all of the pro apps. But when they do, the Core Duo mini should be great for that too.
Edit: You will want to have a decent sized and fast external HD for any decent amounts of video though.
