App dev on Mac Mini 1.1?

Could the very first generation of the Mac Mini handle app development for the iPhone? My friend said he'd give me his for free to use XCode, but I want to make sure that it could run it before I take it.

No. If you are trying to develop against IOS8. You need OSX 10.9.4(Mavericks) to run XCode 6.1.

Short answer: For current iOS versions? No. For any iPhone? Yes.

The latest OS X supported on that hardware (officially, don't know about hacks) is 10.6 and the latest Xcode you can get for that is 4.2 (if you have a paid account, it seems). Xcode 4.2 would support iOS 5.0, so if that's enough, then it can be used for development for iPhone. But I assume that's not what you're after, since a lot has changed since iOS 5.0.
