Mac Mini with 3 GBs of Ram & FCP


Speaking of Ram, yes it is possible to have 3Gigs of Ram in a Late 2007 (Macmini 2,1) Mac Mini. So, if it's true that FCP can only address at maximum, 2.5 Gigs of Ram, then the Mac Mini is a viable editing platform for SD and maybe 2 streams of HD.

Although, multiclip editing would still be problematic unless you transcode I'm guessing.

Quick tip: Hold OPTION while you select the upper-left Apple menu and see "About This Mac" turn into "System Profiler..."
