Everything you need - and not an ounce more - to enjoy digital photos, music and movies. Get a fast G4 processor, slot-loading CD-RW/DVD-ROM drive and a reliable operating system... more...in a body just 16.5 cm square and just over 5 cm tall. Simply add monitor, keyboard and mouse. You'll be organising music and photos, composing tunes and editing movies with iLife '05 in no time. Surf the Internet with the peace of mind of the secure and stable UNIX-based Mac OS X operating system. And since Mac mini can do wireless, you don't even have to put it near a phone jack.

Using AirPort Express and AirTunes, you can even listen to tunes from your Mac mini on speakers in a different room.

Full review
I bought this computer 3 years ago when it first came out. Initially, it was a wonderful little machine, which did everything I threw at it. Then again, my usage with it was strictly basic at the time when I got it. Shortly after, I started getting into audio production, and that's when the mini began to fall short of my expectations for it. You can't really expect too much from it, as it's a low-end consumer model. It serves your basic needs like email and web browsing, but it can also do some photoshop work fairly well. Nothing too intensive. Given its dated status at the moment, and with Apple's transition to Intel processors, I wouldn't recommend it unless your computing needs are basic and you want an affordable way to the Mac platform.
