A new Mac Mini - enough horsepower?

[TDesignCo]

Hi all, im looking at replacing or in addition to my 2007 black Macbook and Im wondering if a new Mac Mini has enough power for the occasional home designer?

Id be running CS3 then in a few months (hopefully) CS6.

Cheers

At work I'm using a 2 year old mini running CS4, at home I use a 12 month old iMac running CS6. the difference in performance between the two is night and day! The mini can drag it's arse sometimes but it just about get's me through.

Something to remember is that if you go down the mini route it'd be a good idea to max out the RAM.
