Hi Brian,
How do you make Mac Mini running with 3G RAM? The spec says only 2G.
From Apple,
1GB (two 512MB) of 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM (PC2-5300)
Option: Up to 2GB
The closest to Mac Mini lookalike is AOpen minipc which can support
4G ram. The problem which mini pc is, they need SO DIMM ram which
is used in notebook, hence more expensive than PC ram.
