Yeah, I looked, still too rich for my blood. (er, billfold)

Only 512M of RAM and built in intel Graphics, blech.  It'd pay to go up to
the $1199 model with better graphics and a bit more RAM.

Maybe dual core wouldn't be a necessity, but other than the Mac Mini, that
looks like all they're selling right now, and a Mac Mini seems pretty high
cost for what it is!  (32-bit processor, core solo or core duo, not much
RAM or disk.)
