is ATIs memory shared from the system or its dedicated from the card?if its from the system can we unlock that and give more memory from ram?Or there is another way of getting more memory to our graphics cards,there is a site that do memory upgrades on pocketpcs www.ppctechs.com
many years now, i think another stack of memory on the 32mb or desolder and solder a bigger memory chip, lets say 128mb, is not something difficult for them.The only prob is if ATI will support and "see" the extra memory, but the are already ati radeon 9200 models with 64/128mb.I dont know many thinks about minis hardware i just think is a good idea.I there are anyone that knows, pls tell is that possible?I already dreaming a mini on 128mb graphics memory.....

From the Mac mini tech Specs:

Graphics support

* ATI Radeon 9200 graphics processor with AGP 4X support
* 32MB of dedicated Double Data Rate (DDR) video memory

I assume that it is seperate chips, but I haven't looked. I am not sure about the Mac environment, but on a PC it would also require a change to the video bios, I think. Mac probably has something equivalent.
