| It's about time Apple started paying attention to the Mac mini. I really think it's one of the best computers they make, even though they appear to hate the thing. I think Apple would rather you buy a more expensive system from them. Mine has been completely trouble free for over the last year. It also runs silent and makes the perfect HTPC. I cannot say enough good things about this little guy. I will buy another when I need to upgrade computers. |

I don't think I'll have the cash to buy it when it comes out, but it's nice to see that Apple seems to want to keep the Mini alive. Me also have had an excellent experience with my Mini, and will upgrade it when I can. Although the lack of Firewire is a bummer for me as well: I have an external MyBook drive using FW, but I'm not sure if it's only FW though (have to check that). And, there might be a converter thingy that exists which could resolve this...

| I hope they keep the firewire I would like to get a Apogee Duet for recording music. It seems they are always lacking something I need in my price range, but we will see hope isn't lost yet. |

- 160GB hard drive (250GB - 500GB as options).
- 2GB of RAM.
- SuperDrive.
- 4 USB ports, no Firewire.
- MagSafe connector for power
- Digital audio in and out.
- 802.11 b/g/n and gigabit Ethernet.
- Apple Keyboard, Mighty Mouse and Remote.
All yours for $699, take it or leave it. I'll take one after Snow Leopard comes out. |
Please no MagSafe on a desktop  |
If that means a smaller power adapter, that's fine with me. The rest of the specs sound great. It will be sad to see FireWire go though. But not sad enough to prevent me from buying one. I'm so ready to upgrade Mac minis. |
