the biggest benefit of this upgrade is you can now (hopefully) drive 2 monitors.

AFAIK, you could already do this (mini-DVI out and displayport).

That's correct, I'm using the previous model of Mac Mini (2.53GHz 4GB 320GB) and two great 20" samsung widescreens. I have to say it's a really awesome way to work!

Hmmm, I tried putting 4GB in my Mac Mini, but it wouldn't boot (now running with 2GB). Did you have to do anything special to make it work?

The last revision gave you two video ports, too. With the right adapters (Mini-DVI -> DVI, MiniDP -> DVI) you can drive two screens. It works very well. More screen real-estate than a MacBook pro, a fraction of the Mac Pro price.
