When I first heard of the Mini I thought it was supposed to be the machine which would encourage PC users to switch to Macs [since you already had a PC no monitor or keyboard is needed]. But what if you are in my position? I have a 2003 Power Mac G5…

I hope I'm wrong but somehow I don't think Apple will build the mini that Marvin refers to in post #60. OTOH, if Apple manufactures a small laptop with that much power they might indeed do so.

[QUOTE=Marvin;1651251]There will always be rumors [snip] It doesn't suggest Pro updates though. The odd thing about the Pro update is that Intel's chips have been released. Apple wouldn't use the 8-core models as they cost too much. So the only…
