A core 2 cpu using ddr 3? Do they even take advantage of that, is the memory controller on the board compatible?
"20-inch version at £950 with a 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of 1066 MHz DDR3 memory, a 320GB serial ATA hard drive and Nvidia GeForce 9400M integrated graphics."
A grand for that, blimey. A pc with that hardware costs about half, is the OS really £400?
No wonder mac market share shrunk this year. Those prices don't look "global recession friendly".
Wow, I want one to use as htpc!!! I has the all functions and looks great! Too bad they priced it so high. Think I'll wait until it drops to US$499 or so. Maybe then they will get rid of the crappy 9400M.
I defend Apple on discussions when I feel it's necessary but ..
For low-end Mac Mini I expected something like 250GB/2GB + remote for 599$; or 1 GB/120GB for 499$.
I feel is somehow over-priced with 100$.
I know that not anyone should be able to buy a Mac; there are PC much cheaper.
But, anyhow, after a long awaited update for MacMini, so little.
Wrong picture.
I meant the one on Apple's site - here:

About a 1/4 of the way down...

The head phone icon is above the audio out. The line in icon is above the audio in. If you follow the lines in the picture labelled Audio In/Out, you will see it branches out at the bottom to cover both ports.

Am I wrong, or is the Audio Out and Audio In reversed? I would think the little 'headphone' icon should be the Audio Out, yes?
The back of that unit looks exactly like the, presumed, photoshopped job from two weeks ago.

Suppose it goes to show: it is possible to over-analyse things. £500 and 5 USB ports means that's actually not such a bad candidate for a little media PC.
