Just discovered this. (Bit olde newsy wise) but still worth a peek.
It's not a Mini of course, not even in the same league, but for $200 (or less) its not bad. Wonder how long before someone loads one up with OS-X.

Cheeky name... Ripple minus the letters R & I plus an A gives you Apple 
Aqua
PS: Slowly getting better. Am using elbow crutches. Still in Hospital, but should be ready to go home in another few weeks time.

I think it was Fred Sanford that mixed Champagne with Ripple and called it Champipple, now that would be a good name for a computer.

Glad you guys liked that one. 
Champipple is a great name. Wonder if it's trademarked? |
