Thank you to all of you who provided feedback on my question about the
desirability of using Mac minis in a lab environment. Most responses tended to
suggest that one spend the extra money for an iMac instead, since the cost
savings on the Mac mini turn out to be less than impressive once you add the
needed peripherals and possibly upgrades--and you would still have to deal with
the security issues related to having such a small CPU.

I suspect somebody will use them, someday, in a very practical way in a lab
environment, so please let us know when that happens.
