I've been using an iPod Touch as my primary computer since the 2nd gen release (secondary computer being an iMac at the uni library). I waited so long for the Mini update that I felt I at least needed something to check my email and watch some video…

All the displays will be changed to environmentally friendly LED backlits with DP connections. Apple will reintroduce the Mini as a lean, green machine with DP ports. Possibly the Pro as well, but the marketing for that line seems more subdued and d…

Apple wants to push its customers into buying the next highest margin product. If there's going to be an iMac update soon, then I guess it's safe to say that there won't be a Mini update until after Christmas, if ever, since it would lure away peopl…

Okay, how about this: the Mac Pro updated at MacWorld with a new environmental brick design and the one more thing looks the same but smaller. Mac mini. I don't know, I got nothing. Apple's lineup looks about the same if you take the Mini out, so…

If you're predicting the price of a future Mac, better to err on the higher side!

No mini upgrades at all. Ever...

There are monitors everywhere. Everywhere. HDTVs are all monitors now. My new Cintiq will be a monitor. What's wrong with being green and efficient, and not wanting yet another screen? And glossy screens are ugly. Ugly.

What about the Mini?

I wonder if it has something to do with security. I mean, they had the Cryptonomicon in one one if those pics and an aluminum brick looks pretty secure. Some kind of unhackable base station? Quantum cryptography? No, I give up.

I don't think it'll happen. I'm typing this from an iPod Touch and it seems to perform as a mobile tablet just fine. The main difference, of course, is that it's no Cintiq. The product you describe would really seem out of place, IMHO. Plus, I d…

Yet another thread about low-priced Macs that doesn't mention the Mini. There may be an 899 MacBook, but it's very unlikely. If Apple cares one iota about low-priced Macs, they wouldn't be ignoring the Mini. Dream on, guys.
