Be warned: The next smug Mac owner I see who publicly makes the mistaken statement that lovely shiny OS X is a whole world more stable than that Blue Screening crock of shit XP is getting this fucking useless Mac Mini (currently beachballing its little heart out, yet again, while I type this on my XP-running laptop) shoved down their latte-scalded throat. One of the main causes of the problem is this Mac running with "only" 512MB of RAM (an amount that I've happily used on Windows for twice the amount of work). We've had a 1GB stick sitting in the office for two weeks, but can we get it installed? Can we bollocks. Reason: Can't get the fucking super-small white object of desire open. Bought a putty knife as recommended by the interblogs - putty knife not thin enough to get into submolecular-sized gap in casing. Putty knife will be finding new home in the behind of Jonathan Ive or the next member of his team that crosses my path. -- Yoz, author of the upcoming Apple-switch memoir, "A Day At The Race Conditions"
