“We’ll admit up front that we have liked the Mac mini for some time. It’s not the most powerful computer in the world, or even the cheapest, but it’s neatly designed and it works extremely well,” Cliff Joseph reports for Computeract!ve.
“This latest version of the Mini looks identical to all its predecessors,” Joseph reports. “The only real change for this model is that Apple has replaced the former’s Intel Core Duo processor with the newer Core 2 Duo.”
“If you’re on a really tight budget, then there are cheaper PCs available. However, the £499 version of the Mac Mini is an attractive and versatile upgrade for people who might want to replace an ageing PC and try out a Mac for the first time,” Joseph reports.

I am in total agreement with you except for the Speak and Spell part. They don’t play games and neither does the MAC MINI. And I like to be able to swap out video cards and stuff like you can on a glorious Windows machine. So for me (and anybody else with half a brain) it’s:
I hate MACs, I’m going to kill them all and replace them with Dells running awesome Microsoft Windows Vista.
Your potential. Our passion.™
Hey Dave, where’d you go?
Dave?
MDN?
Dave?
Dave hates MACs and wants to kill them and replace them with Speak and Spell machines.
Dave, you there?
Mr. Zune Tang sir… you must be merely a figment of my imagination. The REAL Zune Tang always calls us Mac Lemmings and blabbers about the Your Potential, Our Passion™crap. You are sooooo fake.
Long live Mac Mini.
Got it. My mistake.
Your potential. Our passion.™
Zune Tang:
Do you ever comment on anything remotely relevant, or just spout gibberish from morning ’til night?
No doubt like many other posters on here, I just scroll past your idiotic comments and return to the topic. Give it – and us – a rest, please.
Zune Tang, how much money would it take for you to go away?
GRAGH! Since when did the Tang get first dibs on posting? o_O;
As ZT is first, second and fourth in this thread his status as an obsessed Troll is 100% confirmed. Please do not respond or comment on his stupid crap.
He he! Zune Tang admits in his first post that he and his hoodlum chums have only half of a brain! Ballmer will <u>never</u> be honest enough to admit this publicly.
Power to the Zune Tang’s out there and their misguided ways!!
Sorry, that last comment about “Power to the Zune Tang’s” was a sarcastic remark…just for those who missed it. The “misguided ways” was NOT sarcasm.
Mac Mini’s are perfect for home media centers. Or anyone considering to try out the Mac OS X platform. Its designed for humans not robots.
An OK review I guess, but what’s this?
“Vista compatible: No”
It’s not possible to install Vista with BootCamp?
The reason why Mr. Tang is still around is because people pay attention to his nonsense postings.
Ignore him, and he’ll go away.
Obviously Zune Tang needs attention….
Lets not give it to him
Actually I am a Mac user that’s just likes to have fun taking the piss out of the Mac faithful and see what happens. Sorry guys!
In all honesty I really love Macs and think Vista is a pile of poo but It’s fun to wind you all up. I think I will behave from now on as you are obviously way too sophisticated for me.
Your potential. Our passion (to stifle your potential for you).™
