I'm about to drop $200 on my white MacBook for applecare. I really like this machine, except for the graphics power. I've got the 128MB video ram, which is, to me, the only flaw of this system.
Now I know I'm getting a 24" HD monitor for my birthday, and I want a Mac hooked up to that along with my Xbox 360. I'd contemplate hooking this machine up, but last time I did, I ended up with a semi-warped hinge because of the heat (I used it with the lid closed). So its either I try to sell this machine quickly, take the $200 I would put towards Applecare and buy a refurbished Aluminum MB w/ the 256MB graphics, or I buy a Mac Mini.
The Mac Mini is definitely my preferred option, because then I'd keep this machine and buy the Mini, but would it be able to power a 24" screen watching Youtube videos and such?
And what model should I be looking for?
Thanks
