They have some nice mini's at Best Buy for around $350. I told hubby I wanted one for my b'day next month.
It depends on what you personally want/ need a computer for as to if it is a good fit for you...
Hubby is a computer guru (degreed and a hobby) and after looking at the specs, said it is the perfect low cost alternative to the more expensive laptops for those of us who use them to go online, check email and the wonderful YT forums.
Not to mention they are the perfect size to fit into a reg. sized handbag. If I want to do more later on, I'll just hook up my external drive.
