Mac OS X Most reviews of Tiger were conducted on fairly new and fast Macs. This article, however, focuses on running it on a low-end Mac. And, to the reviewer's surprise, it runs ok.

512 MB for an introductory computer was considered insane some time ago. Let's face it, as technology progresses, the minimum requirements always go up.

The Mac Mini will run fine with 512 MB of RAM. However, due to the way OS X uses RAM as a disk cache (see all the inactive, used memory), getting more RAM is always a good thing since the OS can use it to speed up the user experience.
