Buy a used mac mini ram and hdd size?
I am thinking of buying a used mac mini because the new one cost too much. The one I have been looking at only have about 80gb hard drive and 1gb ram I don't know if it will be any good for me.
I was thinking of doing a bit of video editing photo shoping, music and stuff like that will it be any good for me?
I am only 14 so i don't have much cash

If you are looking for a Mac Mini, you should get an Intel Core2Duo version, not a PowerPC Mini G4 which is what it sounds like you are looking at. The G4 Mini is restricted to 1 GB RAM and cannot run the latest OSX.
Also, avoid the CoreSolo and the CoreDuo models, they are restricted to 2 GB RAM. Shoot for a Core2Duo model so you can install 4 GB. For video and photoshop you want as much RAM as you can get, and a larger hard drive - 250 GB would be better (although you can add an external hard drive)
Look at the Apple store online in the Refurbished Mac area - they sometimes have Minis come up there for good prices, and these have the same warranty as new. Don't get the Server model though, it doesn't have a DVD drive.

stick with what you want and are conscious of. I actually have never tried a mac, tried Linux, loved it, yet on the time unlike minded with some thing of the international, so defaulted to living house windows. follow your mac.
