      I just ordered on for my Televison. Hot stuff.

      OSX is far better than Windows, Firefox is far better than IE and my DLP display will look nice with the MAC DVI output.

      Add itunes, Imovie and Idvd and I can input video from the camcorder and edit on a monster screen.

      Any of you who have not used a Mac since OSX do not know today's Macintosh. It might not run all Windows software but it runs beautifully with software written for OSX and BSD Unix.

      This Mac Mini, the Ipod and Microsoft's continuing problems with security will stop the decline in Apple's market share and developers will take notice.

          It's just a stylish empty box, not a computer.

            I am happy for Apple's new baby. Looks like my stock portfolio will keep on rising in value.

                          A $499 Mac is not made for Serious work. Although this unit is more than capable of handling some pretty tough business.

                          Hell, if you don't want to pay for her you can always get a FREE MINI MAC right here.

                          I'm only a few referrals away from getting one myself, and since this is the same company that gave away the iPods, I'm going to say it's a pretty safe bet.

                            did some (they don't have many options) customizing...

                            Subtotal $1,352.00


                            suddenly it doesn't seem like such a good deal.

                              a couple of things suck about it.. most notably only 2 USB2 ports and 1 firewire.. you can of course get USB2 'expansions' that will plug in and give you 4 more slots. I suspect such accessories will be flying out when the mac mini's start shipping... not least because it doesnt take much to use 2 USB2 ports these days! ... the other thing is the RAM, it is SDRAM not DDR but they claim it is upgradable to 1gb.

                              as someone has pointed out, when you add stuff to it (maybe an external dvd writer, or external bigger hard drive) and you'll definately need that USB2 expansion and possibly a nice new monitor unless you have one lying around.. you might as well buy an imac or something :
