The new Mac mini looks a little bit like a power supply, at the size of a jewel case - ingeniously great. A slot-loading Combodrive and an LED on the front and a "Bunch of cool Stuff" inside: FireWire, DVI, VGA, USB, Modem, "pretty quiet" and "very, very small". The "most affordable Mac ever" costs only $499,- USD featuring a 1,25GHz G4 CPU, 256MB RAM, and a 40GB HDD, and only a hundred dollars more will bring you a 1,42GHz G4 CPU, and a 80GB HDD. But: the package lacks a keyboard, a mouse, and a display. Software? Preinstalled Mac OS X 10.3.7 Panther including iLife '05.
