Just picked up a mac mini

[Combat squirrel]

As title, ever since getting the iphone iv been looking into macs, managed to get a mac mini 1.25ghz G4 with 256mb ram, thinking of upgrading to 1gb ram, and then wacking on leapord, will leapord work ok on these ? as its not intel, what limits do I have with it being G4 ?

Will do, max is 1gb in it though, is that enough for normal day to day tasks ? I want to use this machine as a 'stable' machine, as in use it for itunes, ical and to sync my iphone, my pc is formatted so much it gets annoying to keep making playlists for my tunes..........so hopefully OS-X is able to keep on doing the above for years, 1gb enough yeh ?

If the usage is as low as you mention then, yes.

I'd be compelled to suggest Tiger, but it should be fine on Leopard

Its got 10.4 with it, which is tiger aint it ? not got it running yet, why suggest tiger? is it VERY similar to leopard? got it to see how I like OS-X as well,
