The Last of the "PowerPC" Macs.......2007-07-24

The 1.42 GHz PowerPC G4 Mac Mini (512 MB DDR SDRAM, 80 GB Hard Drive, DVD/CD-RW Drive) was one of the last PowerPC Macs released before the "Intel invasion." When I purchased mine the week before the Intels were announced, they placed my order on "hold" to give me a chance to buy the Intel version. I declined the upgrade, and haven't looked back since. The Mac Mini has worked like a charm for the past year-plus. For what I use it for (MS Word, web surfing, iTunes, DVD watching, and even Photoshop), I haven't noticed anything that an Intel could improve upon speedwise. The PowerPC is dead...long live the PowerPC!

Mac Mini's Are Great!.......2007-01-03

I've had my mini for about a year and have been very pleased with it. If you are going to do simple computing (managing photos, music, internet, etc.) then this computer will do the job and then some. I've been an Apple fan for a long time and have had several products over the years (two iPods, G3 blue & white, cinema display, etc.) and I have to say the mini is one of my favorites. The compact design is what all computers should strive for. The OS is stable and I've had no technical problems with it. I'm a very satisfied customer.

Nice little machine for a newbie.......2006-12-13

I bought the Mac Mini, owned it for six months then sold it. Now I'm getting a core duo.

Here's the pro's and cons of this machine:

PRO's
- Great small form factor.
- Quiet
- Nice stable operating system
- Bug resistant, you don't have to buy antivirus software.
- Comes with some nice but basic software.
- Office for MAC is nicer software than Office for PC.
- Great apple keyboard (has extra USB ports to make up for the lack of ports on the back of the mini.
- Awesome apple keyboard -- best in the business.
- Airport extreme wireless works well, easy to configure and picks up well.
- Good machine for "newbies".

CONS
- Maybe just slightly slow.
- Get as big a monitor as possible (19 inches or more) because the software doesn't make good use of monitor real estate.
- If your a power user, this machine will leave you lacking. Better to get a PC.
- Apple mouse is terrible. Go get an optical mouse from Walmart for cheap $$'s.
- Not all printers work with Apple, choose carefully.
- Not really upgradeable.

All in all, it's a nice machine for kids I think, but pretty soon they will be kicking you off your laptop PC as they become more advanced "power users".

Already a newer version.......2006-03-07

I just got the mac mini 2 months ago and already a better version is available. Can I exchange this for the new mac mini that just came out and is 4 times faster?!?!?

Amazon Rocks.......2006-03-06

A lot of the reason I am so pleased with the Mac Mini has to do with Amazon.com. Great customer service, price, shipping. Buying this from the Apple store would have cost me $150 more. Now, about the computer-
First off, I was shipped a unit with upgraded Processor (1.5ghz) and Video. Also the Superdrive is dual layer, not single although I haven't been able to see if it works as a DL. So I'm pretty pleased that I have an upgrade right off the bat.

The slogan says BYODKM, so I'll tell you how I have it set up. Apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse and the display is a 50' plasma TV. This is a really cool setup for my kids, playing educational games.

About 2 days after the unit was delivered, Apple released the new Intel version of the Mini. Initially I was disappointed, but after looking at the new specs I realized I had bought the better PPC version. The Intel version shares video with the 512 main memory and has no dedicated chipset seperate.

The positives are: Small form factor, great performance, price. You just can't beat OS X in terms of reliability. I will not miss being a system administrator on my wife's dell, constantly scanning and removing malware. Price-Got mine with a superdrive for $630 shipped.

Negatives: Memory. Although units shipping now have a standard 512k, I really think I'll need to upgrade to at least 1mb. Also, after having been a Powerbook user, there is a perceptable difference in the build quality. Not bad mind you, but not quite up to par with the Powerbooks.

Overall, a great machine if you already have your keyboard/mouse/display. If not, the new imac is a much better value. Why only 4 instead of 5 stars? Well, the superdrive seems to only want to burn at 2X, not the 8X as advertised. Apple has nothing to remedy this issue yet, but will probably issue a firmware upgrade sometime.

So my advice is to take the plunge and switch over to OS X, you'll be very happy you did.

Disappointing.......2002-01-06

I bought these to use at an event - the reception wouldn't carry across the building, and when it did work the quality of the sound was pretty poor.

Pretty Good Deal.......2001-10-23

I bought fifteen sets to use at our school. They've been knocked around and dropped and still work pretty good. Some of the units pick up a lot of static especially as the battery starts to run low. We still can't figure out all the features and the display. The displays are confusing and some of the features appear to be meaningless or possibly aren't working. The battery indicator doesn't seem to work consistently. Some of the transmit buttons are stubborn and have to be pressed HARD. One of the transmit buttons don't work at all. The belt clips pop off, (resulting in the unit hitting the floor) especially if you're fat and you bend over. Hah! Anyway, the bottom line is that for the cost, they've been serving their purpose.

Excellent Product for Price.......2001-07-28

This product has quite a number of things going for it. Firstly it's an excellent FRS radio with excellent range (have not been able to test the two mile range 'cause of my terrain), coupled with the headphone set it allows for ease of communication for a variety of purposes, I use it for security in-store as well and they work marvellously. Also, with the drop-in charger and rechargeable batteries the savings gained in the original great price is magnified 100X over a similar motorolla product, which does not even have battery rationing and is certaily not rechargeable! (these average 2AA batteries per day on continous use!) Ideal choice for the budget conscious shopper who wants a greater bang for the buck.

Good product for the money.......2001-06-23

These radios have worked well for us under most conditions- at the lake, in Mexico, and car to car. The nice part about them is the rechargeable batteries and the included charger. The sound quality and range has been within acceptable limits for us, and has surprised us on occasion when they have been loud and clear thru forested areas and over hills. They have been subjected to jolts on the jet ski and minimal amounts of waterspray without apparent damage. They hold a charge for a long weekend. Overall we have been satisfied with the performance of these radios and feel they provide good performance at a fair price. My only (minor) complaint is that I have to consult the owner's manual to understand some of the various functions as the lettering near the buttons and dials is small and difficult to read.

Falls far short of the mark.......2001-04-29

With twin boys of 11 and a 14 year old daughter, having this relatively inexpensive technology is certainly better than not having it. But I'm afraid that's the best I can say about these radios. I live in a typical residential neighborhood. Living just 8 blocks from the Atlantic Ocean I expected just "half" the advertised range of 2 miles, but disappointed I was. Less than 5 blocks down the road squelch covers the kids audio without 'any' adverse conditions. I purchased two sets (4) radios. The only reason why I don't return them is because I suspect the rated 2 miles is just a farce. They get a rating of 3 for the technology, but performance couldn't possibly rise above a 1. Sorry folks!

A Bit Expensive for a Mediocre HD Tuner.......2007-06-10

I purchased the Samsung SIR-T351 in April of 2004 and have used it to this day. I can thoroughly say I have a great deal of experience with this tuner.

Positives: Easy to flip to your favorite channels, decent HD signal scanning capability, ease of setup and connections (for simple systems, i.e., one HDTV and terrestrial antenna input).

Negatives: Does not have "point" on the remote so you can't enter 4.1, 10.3, you have to go to 4 then "channel-up" to .1, .2, .3, etc.; during storms, high winds or rain when the signal is disrupted or becomes weak the audio may go out of sync (changing channels then coming back solves the problem); the tuner interface is SLOW (can't perform other controls if the guide or other features are displayed, you have to wait for the tuner to lock to a channel before you can change to a different one); no way to upgrade the firmware in this unit; the signal strength meter is very slow and does not give a good real-time indicator of signal strength (will show 7 bars even if the signal goes in and out quickly); the unit gets very warm (don't set anything on this as it will quickly heat up), and it was expensive when we bought it ($250 at Best Buy after some credit card and other discounts were applied).

There are more than likely better tuners out there. At the time, this was the only terrestrial tuner offered at Best Buy in my area (Raleigh, NC), so I pretty much had to take it (there were plenty of HD decoders from the cable and satellite companies but I wanted over-the-air so my choices were limited). It is still operational but the built-in tuner in my Sharp Aquos, which I purchased a year later, is significantly better, so I know by now HD terrestrial tuners have improved and are more than likely a bit less expensive.

Solid performer - strange behavior at times.......2005-12-22

Have owned this unit since May 2005. Bought it refurbished for $100. Works really well except for audio/video sync problems that may be related to distance from the ATSC transmitter. I have some problems with signal strength when it snows or rains. I live as much as 40 miles from the broadcast stations but still pick them up fine. The secret to picking up these broadcasts is HEIGHT! I have a non-amplified UHF antenna in the attic of my two story colonial that used to be part of my old NTSC VHF UHF antenna. I live at the midpoint between Detroit and Lansing E to W and between Flint and Ann Arbor N to S and can receive HD channels from these locations without rotating the UHF antenna!

Stay clear of this unit and the Samsung Company products!.......2005-12-06

I purchased this new in a factory sealed box and not reconditioned. Registered the unit with the serial number for the factory warranty online and began using the unit. In less than thirty days it locked up and would not work properly. I contacted Samsung to arrange to have it shipped back to a service center for the warranty repair. They would not accept the item for repair because it was last years model and they did not have parts or work on them anymore. They offered to sell me the latest unit as a replacement. How many people out there are going to purchase another unit from a company that won't stand behind their previous model. Very, very poor customer service and product quality. I will never purchase any other Samsung product again!

Superb for the price paid.......2005-01-10

I got my unit at a local CC for $130 as an open box special - actually there was no box - but the unit looked good and all the parts and manual, cables, etc. were there in a plastic bag - so at $130 (after making sure I could return it) - I took a chance. I had been wanting a tuner for my Hitachi 32" HDTV for some time, but balked at paying $300. This unit was on-sale for $239 at the time (with a box;).

I came here to check the reviews and that's the main reason I'm back to post this one. After reading the many negative reviews here, I thought maybe I'd made a big mistake - but I decided to give it a whirl anyway. On the first day - all excited - I started hooking everything up - pretty easy. I used component (YPbPr) so I had no problems at all getting 480i 480p 720p and 1080i right off the bat. I had no antenna, so I just grabbed the cheap (really cheap - not even very adjustable) radio shack rabbit ears off the TV in my son's room. Right off the bat I had many problems as reported here, picture pixelating, sound dropping out, and so on. I don't know that much about HDTV gear, but I did some careful reading here and check out a few inet sites. But that night I was pretty sure it was going back to the store.

The next evening when I got some time, I gave it another go. I had read on one of the sites the importance of the length of the antenna for the VHF channels, the UHF loop isn't even adjustable on the antenna I was using. So I tried adjusting them to the recommended length (13.5 inches or so, I think) and I found by making one a little longer than the other and turning it the right way, I went from 3 bars to 5-6 bars in signal strength and WHAM! a rock solid glorious image and sound!

I can get the closest channels (12-20 miles) with ease now - even though I live on a lot w/30-40 foot trees around the house.
I get a rock solid signal at night, during mid-day there are occasional glitches. But, of course, I need to get a *real* antenna!!! I'm sure then I will be able to pull in more channels and will have no more problems.

So, as many other sites (and some reviews here) suggested - it's the antenna that's key (Duh!). The unit itself works exactly as described and I have had no problems. The guide works fine once your unit has been on long enough the first time to down load the data. I think the unit looks nice and the setup, features and options all seem pretty good to me.

Now I can actuall watch HDTV for free on my Hitachi and I am sure glad I did not take this baby back!!!

So, don't let the negative reviews put you off - give it a shot if you can find one at a good price!

SIR-T351 Great Picture - Great Price.......2004-12-14

I bought my SIR-T351 on eBay for under $200.

READ THE DIRECTIONS. You get no signal and no picture until the unit is set up.

I am about five miles from digital towers in my area. Locks in on channels almost instantaneously. Two stations (ABC and CBS) are at light bulb status (<100watts). CBS comes in with 4 bars and is solid, ABC has one blinking bar and will not lock in. NFL football in HD off FOX is beautiful.

I believe people who are having troubles with this unit are:
1. Not properly setting up the set, or
2. Not realizing that 90% of digital reception problems are antenna related (multipath, etc.), or
3. blaming the receiver when the station is at fault. Digital broadcasting is a difficult and precise art that most stations are not capable of doing perfectly.
