Mac mini question for hardware geeks:
Which would be better for a machine to be used as an iTunes server and Xcode development machine (plus the usual web browsing and PIM functions)? No gaming and no HD video viewing.
A. 2.7 GHz dual-core Core i7 with AMD Radeon HD 6630M graphics
B. 2.0 GHz quad-core Core i7 with Intel HD Graphics 3000 graphics
Obviously graphics in A are better and clock speed for single or double-threaded type operations is also superior.
On the other hand B is quad-core so in theory could be better for operations that support it (such as compiling in Xcode perhaps?).
All opinions welcome.
Thanks!
