A brief walkthrough of the features of my Dell Mini 9 with OSX Leopard 10.5.8 installed. Everything works, bluetooth, WiFi, sleep, USB, webcam etc. My Mini has 1.6 Ghz Atom processor, 1 gig of RAM, and 16 gig SSD drive.

  • man, this looks FANTASTIC XD What size SSD does it use? I will probably buy the 8gb model then upgrade it myself.

    Thanks

  • @UltimateitemHacker it has a 16 GB SSD which is the stock SSD that came with the Dell, it's a pretty slow SSD from a read/write rate, so if you put a faster SSD in there the performance would totally jump. Good Luck!

  • What's the battery life like on the Mini 9 with OS X on it?

  • @Encrypt1on It's good for about 3 hours of surfing and word processing, so not too bad, but not great either, and it runs pretty hot!

  • does it run any mac software

  • It runs iLife pretty well. My buddy actually installed VM Fusion on it and runs Windows XP off a USB hard drive and it seems to work pretty well. I've also installed iWork 09 on it and it runs pretty well also. I haven't tried any other Mac software tho. But if you're thinking about doing any kind of gaming on this forget it not nearly powerful enough to do it. This is really for web browsing, emailing, web cam stuff, and some light word processing and spreadsheets.

see all

  • @KeshnerfFilms If you buy the mac os($129) it is technically legal, but it voids the eula

    and they can't tell that you did it if u replace the ssd

  • @UltimateitemHacker It can be upgraded to 80 gb tho

  • wait wait wait. Is this "illegal" or just voids the warrenty?
