Mac Mini: The Emperor’s New Computer:
So is the mini a maxi value? For me, clearly, no. When I consider that a good deal of my time is spent running applications like Disk Defragmenter, Scandisk, Norton AV, Windows Update and Ad-Aware--none of which are available for the Mac platform--it doesn’t make sense for me to “switch” to a Mac at this time.

It's about the size of a 5-pack of CD-ROMs, quiet as a mouse-fart, and boots up almost instantly. Awesome little computer.
After using Linux, I think you'll be very pleased, indeed.
