    If you consider cracking a mini open as a difficult mod, then just stop. This is not a difficult upgrade by anymeans. Until your hand soldering to surface mount its not even remotely hard.

    the mini and putty knife are destined to be together forever. get over it


    at least its better than the aluminum iMac and spider-man-like suction cups. I always feel silly removing the glass panel on those guys =/

    Mind you, it actually costs Apple $180 to crack open the Mac mini, and the other $20 for the parts.

    @beyondthetech: No, they just build it with the other parts. They don't open the comps and change parts.

    Makes my MSI Wind Barebones look absolutely spacious by comparison! Wow.


    Looks like you can still do a little modding if you like though, so that's cool.

    Well, now it just seems stupid that they ship a model with only 1GB RAM at all.

    @kaubuchon: Yeah, but at least it comes with a single stick of RAM so if you want to upgrade to two, you only have to buy one stick.


    Oh, wait. Mac and third party ram hate each other. Scratch that. You still have to buy two sticks and sell the other one.
