Dell Mini 9 loaded with OS X

I needed a Small Laptop net book form factor that I can carry with my other vista laptop Plus it has to fit in my backpack. Rather than getting a Mac Book air - I might damage an Air on some of my hikes. I turned to this solution. Currently everything works except for the sleep mode. It boots in under a minute. I have been developing apps with it so far so Good

have not tried it with an 8 GB I have a 64GB SSD. Sorry but you need a 32 GB to make it more or less usable.

SSD

Is this with 1GB or RAM or 2?

[jojokahanding]

2 GB ;)

Sleep mode *should* work if you have USB legacy disabled. I haven't yet got a mini9, but shall be ordering one in a couple of weeks.

It's quite amazing how quickly they start up!!

Yep it's really fast the only thing I probably would want is longer battery life. Also as an fyi the bluetooth headsets work great. I'll try the legacy usb later tonight thanks for the tip.
