Macbook Mini - Netbooks With OS X!? Is It Good?

Macbook Mini, everyones dream right? I mean a fully working, fairly capable, 10 inch portable Mac for £200/$300, what could go wrong? I mean how hard can it be?

I learned that in order to do this, you need access to a mac (if you want the most straight forward way) so thats a pain as you would buy this if you could not afford a mac or if you wanted both windows and mac on a smaller machine that the smallest mac.

It does perform basic tasks fairly quickly so the only waiting you will do is while the thing turns on. You also get more battery life compared to windows XP/7.

The downside is that to run iLife, the screen is way to small and it does not like external displays. This is a good business machine, just no good at some more intense stuff like movie editing. You also may want to upgrade the ram up to 2 GB and add an SSD which put the price up but makes it a really quick machine.

Overall, a good machine but chokes on tasks that require some more resources, well on my machine anyway.

Specs of my machine are as following:

Intel Atom N270 - 1.60 GHZ

1 GB Of Ram

160 GB SATA HDD (no SSD Here)

Bluetooth

Wireless N (Upgrade from Dell, Ordered when they built my system)

3 Cell Battery (3 Hour Life On OS X/2 Hour on XP/1.5 Hours on Win 7)

UK GOOGLE NAVIGATION!

Thanks to instructions here (http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/29886/android-navigation-hacked-for-uk) you can use Google Navigation with an android handset in the UK. The best bit is that there is no rooting needed although it is better to have you device rooted.

PS3 question

Do you bother with demos or do you just buy games and hope they are good?

iPod question

What EQ do you use?

This is just half of it...

PS3 wireless keypad

This is the PlayStation 3 Wireless Official Keypad. To be honest, its rubbish to say a quick 'hi' while you wait for a game to load or while your watching a movie because the keys are too 'blackberryish' for my liking. I mean, they are really small. Another thing is the track-pad or touch-pad that it is supposed to have, doesn't work! Thanks Sony for this crap. Have to say it is useful though. I like it, despite all the flaws, i like it! Go buy it :)
