How does it run OSX? Any bugs? I had OSX on my mini9 but took it off due to a few compatibility issues. I love my macbook, but the minimac just wasn't the same.

Now thats cool Than. When I need a new computer, I'll contact you for advice.

Come on over! OSX is wonderful for my non-work computing environment.

Which method did you use to install? Which version of OS X?

Mine is rock solid.

I don't remember the name of the method, but it was the way www.mydellmini.com said to do back late last winter/early spring. I got two finger scrolling to work, but it was buggy, and the sound would get static at random times.

I'm sure they've improved it since then, but really, for a net book, windows XP works just fine.

The new Netbook Bootmaker method is a lot better. I actually used the DellEFI method for mine but I just built another one for a friend yesterday and it was much easier. There are a lot of new kexts out too that really help. The only issue I have is the occasional hang on restart after sleep.

I couldn't be happier with my Mini 9 running os x.

I would run Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Netbook before I ran XP (although I did dual boot OS X and XP for a bit but never really used XP).

The mechdrew guide really makes OSX install correctly on the Mini with the correct set of devices.

It runs like a champ...yeah its now core2quad G5 beast...but I'm not asking it to edit videos.
