Yes I heard good things about those from non-tech people, mainly via my 
sister who does graphics/arts stuff.  However, the mac mini is twice the 
price of the PC my mum has with XP, and she is happy with XP because she 
knows (roughly!) how to use it.  Maybe when she has some more money to 
spend, or some hardware breaks she will consider it.
