After poking around this section, I noticed a lot of the Esato members are mac users... so I got a bit curious 
Can a mac mini (1.83ghz intel 2 duo, 1gb of ram) run some of the more simple games (WC3, Starcraft, Soldier of fortune 2) smoothly? ATM I have a basic PC with 1gb of ram, some AMD Sempron (like 1.5ghz) and an ATI Radeon with 64mb of memory, so I'm guessing it can seeing as they are identical. Also, this one is very important, can a Mac and a PC share an internet connection (through home networking)?  | |

yeah a mac and pc can share a net connection, I had it at my old flat, I had my mac and my flatmate has a winblows laptop, both connected wirelessly, as for games, I see no reason why not, I guess you'd be running them via bootcamp?

That's right, they can share an internet connection through a suitable router just as any ethernet / wireless capable device can. I don't think you can wire a mac OS machine up to a windows PC to share internet that way though. Not without third party software maybe?
As for the games, yes they should run OK if you dual-boot windows on it, although obviously I wouldn't expect them to run very well with everything on full quality.
