Depends on how much you want to develop on your mac. I do my development on my windows machine and have unity build the xcode project on my mac machine so my only need for it is to remote in and compile to device. With that setup I never go over about 4GB of memory usage on my Mid 2011 Mac Mini.

Well I decided to switch to Mac from Windows altogether, initially I started with a late Mac Mini I7 Quad 2012, then I upgraded the ram to 16gb buying it from Amazon not Apple (saved a lot of money on the ram that way).

Now I grabbed a 15" MacBook Pro and it does fine with only 8gb ram, but if you want to develop on the Mac using the editor I would say try to go 8gigs if at all possible.

I would at least get the newest low end dual core I5 Mac Mini (upgrade the ram) to be better future proof. Apple will slowly phase out support for older hardware and therefore Xcode will not get updated for the older OS’s when they do, so if you are spending the money you can get the low end mini for $549 at some web sites, B H might have them that cheap, not sure.
