I don't regret buying it -- I've lusted after a Mac for many years (sucker for their slick marketing, I guess) but using one in my own home for several months made me realize that OS X is all about form over function. I'm convinced the Mini would have felt snappier if it wasn't so hamstrung by the bloated graphics of OS X. Put on the terminal application (I think) and use the BSD prompt for everything. You can then Unix to your heart's content. Bud |
