I'm on my second Mini (still have and use the first) and have never had any problems working with large PhotoShop files. I did just upgrade to 16 gigs of RAM because I worked on one PS project that severely taxed the paltry 4 gigs I had. I'd have to go back and look to see just how large this file was with all its layers, but it was mucho megs.

Definitely spring for the maximum RAM and fastest processor, though.
