  What do you see as temps?

 I will check them thoroughly before proceding.

 Actually, since I got the mini, I have supported it on rubber corks
 such as used to close up a home brewer's carboy. They give about an
 inch or a little more clearance underneath. A couple of weeks ago,
 I dusted off a chill pad and have it positioned under the mini with
 one of the fans directly beneath the center of the unit. I have not
 seen any need to turn the chill pad on, but would do so while
 compiling.

Thanks for the reply. Good to see another mini geek out there. I got
the unit with 8 GB Ram (which I purchased separately for about $50)
am able to happily use pretty much the same setup as I had on my
linux boxes (I.E. mutt, postfix, procmail, fetchmail, vim, MC).
