> From the information that Apple provides about this

> uses compared to other desktops, etc.), one would get the
> impression that it is a relatively good, tolerable computer

> I find the small size of this computer to be a big plus

> compact desktop. I'm wondering if it may have some of the

> such a large amount of "technology" packed into a small

> Mini for this reason?  Or does the Mac Mini compare
> favorably to larger, supposedly "better shielded" desktops?

> Right now, I'm planning to "upgrade" my CRT t.v. to an LCD
