My first suggestion is regarding the monitor. Normally when you go into full editing you will be opening a lot of windows and pallettes and it will tend to clutter up on your screen very easily. I suggest you get a larger CRT (21 inch would be appropriate) instead of a small LCD. CRT is relatively cheaper and the quality is better IMO.

Also, regarding Final Cut Pro: it is a very good Video editing software, not to mention very easy to learn, but the entire system with the Mac mini, USB mouse & keyboard + monitor could be a bit costly. I also find 40GB to be small for a full-pledged Video editing system. Although I'm Pro Macintosh also, I'd like to give a fair suggestion towards getting a faster P4 system and use Sony Vegas for basic editing, or Adobe Premier (with Adobe AfterEffects) for a more flexible (and more professional) tools. Just make sure you get a fast HDD (SCSI or UltraFast SATA). Yes, it will be cheaper, but I'm afraid you might have to do a bit of tinkering before you get the PC system to work.

ok cool, i might get a larger crt, but they take up sooo much room and my desk is relatively small, i could also pay a little more and get a 17 or 19 inch lcd...i dunno ill have to shop around.
the reason i want to get a mac is because i can get final cut pro at a VERY discounted price from the producer of the last movie i was in so that saves me 900 odd dollars.
i can also upgrade to 80gb for just 80 bucks more so i might.
ummm i can get a USB mouse and keyboard for $30 so thats not an issue.
i was thinkin about gettin a I book but they ended up being over 2000 dollars with the upgrades i needed.
i could also get a 1.45ghz mac mini for $980 but i would be adding $400+ onto that (not including monitor). so i think this is my best option.

With all the discounts you're getting, I think it is a wise buy after all. 80GB is better and 17 inch monitor is cool enough as long as you get the good quality LCD, sharp and accurate colors. Good luck!
