After seeing @PRIME setup, I had to go cop an UW. Excuse the mess, I just wanted to get the monitor turned on
PRIME you ever have any problems running 2560x1080? Mainly getting tired of it? I wanted a 3440x1440, but I would of had to make too many upgrades. Windows video card and I believe the mac mini late 2012 can't run the resolution. I wanted to future proof it, but this monitor went on sale on Prime Day and all my current hardware could run it no problem.

So the mac mini works with any display?
And can i use my 4gs of ram i took out my macbook pro mid 2009 and put it in a macbook 2008 that is currently running off of 2gs? Will that upgrade the speed and laggyness a little bit?

Depends what year mac mini? My Late 2012 will be different than that of the 2014.
To answer your ram question, I am not sure. As long as the slots are similar, it should work. Upgrading the speed, not so sure. Itll help you run more applications at one time though.

Yeah, I know. I'm going to be buying a MBP real soon and feel the moment I purchase it, Apple will release an update.

Apparently they're coming in Fall. So the wait isn't that much longer. I could buy one now but I'm holding off until then.

Hmm, that may be just enough time when I plan on purchasing one. We'll just wait and see.

Buy a cheap enclosure to put the old drive in and just transfer like that.

its actually easier than you think...connect your ssd to your mac using this cable
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Oyen-Digi...Hard-Drive-Solid-State-Drive-Adapter/51053216
download super duper which is free and use that app to format your new ssd... than transfer your data from your mac to you ssd which will take a minute depending on how many files you got... then you can swap your hdd with your new ssd...
i used this guys video to help me with the ssd
