Am I the only one that prefers the previous Mini design?
I just bought a new Mini ($799 version) and I have to say I prefer the older design (giving it to my mom). I like the white top and the smaller form factor vs. the larger wider look.
As for the now built in power supply, with the external supply there was a lot more cord to work with and I could keep the Mini on the right side of the desk where I prefer it, now I have to put it on the left closer to my battery back-up strip.
Nit picking I guess but I don't see how the current design is a step up from the previous.
I'm not going to mention the lack of a DVD Player/Burner

And I absolutely love the new one. To each his own.

Longer cords exist, you know.

Because there's no point in having one, probably.
