I'm holding off for now. There are a couple issue with snow leopard - some problems with the audio output not working properly which is sort of a deal breaker for me. That is a Mini 9 specific issue though - I think the 10V runs it with no issues at all.

Snow Leopard runs great on my MacBook though!

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.

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

SL is really for the super beefy dual/quad core builds. If I had the right rig for my tower, I would consider hackintosh method, but I don't want to spend money on fixing my windows 7/xp box that isn't really broken at all.

One thing I DONT MISS is the constant upgrade of virus definitions and "Allow this program to run/modify windows blah blah blah" or...you have Windows updates ready to install....want to reboot now?? Frickin nagware.
