Wow, very odd. And twice! Are you going to take it in, have it looked at?

I hadn't even thought of that. (I'm very used to have to sink or swim on my own.) I guess I could, if I can find the receipt. It's been 59 days, and the Apple warranty is... one year, it seems. I use Time Machine (that's what one of those two drives you may have noticed to the left of the mac is for -- they're both 1TB), so I guess I could do a restore...

Hm. Food for thought.

This is NOT normal behavior. I've never seen it before, and our Mini's certainly never done it.

Yup. My first guess would be bad RAM; I don't remember if that model has shared graphics or dedicated VRAM. It might be worthwhile to run hardware test off the DVD overnight or something to see if that finds anything.

You can enter the serial number on their Online Service Assistant page to get the info they have, which should show that it's less than a year old and therefore still covered.
