  1. Excellent. Like the price points. Need to look at the specs and the cost of options. For the mini I would need a 500 or 1000GB SSD.
    I wonder when the 15/16 inch MBP will be out. Definitely in the market of 1 or maybe 2.

  2. I wish a generalized comparative road map was provided that would give reason to buying a Mac mini now, vs. waiting for the new iMac. I know spilling the beans on a future product is a no-no, but w/o any info, one is taking too much of a dark plunge.
