Reader Reviews
This is just the book you need if you want to do ANYTHING inside your mac mini. This book eliminates any fear you may have about opening up your mac mini. The mini is an incredible little computer with lots of potential and this book will help you make the most of it. Many projects from simple to complex (Increasing CPU Speed)are laid out with easy to follow instructions. The money you save by doing your own memory upgrade will more than pay for this book, in fact with the money you save you can upgrade the Hard drive or optical drive too! Comment | | (Report this)
