Hi, I have been using macs since I was just a youngun playin kid pix. I am soon to buy my first computer and I am thinking aout getting a intel core duo Mini with 2 gigs of RAM. I will mostly be using it for photoshop and blender but I also want to do some gaming on it. I was wondering if anyone else here has a Mini and has tried out many different games with varying graphical stress on the system, that can give me an idea of what I can and cant run. One specific thing I'm wondering is if anyone has tried running Half Life 2 on boot camp with a mini. If even on the lowest possible settings I found a vid on the net but it didn't show much. Any help would be much appreciated

It plays games, but not well. HL2 will run at minimal settings.

According to the Steam survey statistics, about 2% of users play on Intel integrated graphics.

Make sure you get your 2 gigs of ram from newegg.com. Apple will rip you off for BTO ram.
