Upgrading Mac Mini

    Hi Lads,

    So I forked out 200 notes on a second hand Mac Mini.

    - 1.25GHz PowerPC G4 Processor
    - 1 MB of DDR SDRAM
    - 40GB Hard Drive
    - Slot loading Combo Drive (DVD-ROM / CD-RW)
    - ATI Radeon 9200 graphics processor with 32MB of DDR video memory
    - Built-in 10/100BASE-T Ethernet
    - 56k V.92 Modem
    - One FireWire 400 port
    - Two USB 2.0 ports
    - Built-in speaker and headphone jack

    Probably spent too much money on it but what the hell I wanted one.

    So I'm all ready wondering how to upgrade it (before I've even got it in my hands!)

    1 - Hard drive, what the max size hd i can install? what would be the best price / speed etc.

    2 - Airport express - Can this be installed in my version? Saw a tutorial here: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/Mac-Mini-PowerPC/AirPort-Extreme-Card/82/11/ Where do I go to get one of these? ebay?? Recommendations??

    Thanks for any help you can give me lads.

    //Gary
