I ordered a single Mac Mini to do some more accurate benchmarking for build times prior to comitting to a larger purchase. The online store is currently quoting 3-4 weeks lead time before the machine will ship. So it'll be some time before I can post any comparitive numbers against my original post. If folk here have numbers they can give sooner - it seems like there are some that'd appreciate it.

I still haven't found a solid answer to the drive speed question. I've seen reports of 4200 RPM but also a report that the Mini uses a Seagate Momentus mechanism which (according to Seagate) is a 5400 RPM drive. Apple System Profiler should (I think) be definitive ?

Many thanks
