As interesting (and inevitable) as the rebranding of “iPhone OS” to “iOS” was not to mention the introduction of the iPhone 4, more interesting to me was the quiet refresh of the Mac Mini line. I’ve owned a “mini” ever since they came out. They are great products and fit nicely into life – mine is located in the kitchen.
With the improved graphics and larger memory footprint it’s hard to resist these things. At $699 it’s even harder not to consider trading my existing one in ($174) for a new one. $512 for a brand new Mini – humm.
My existing one needs a hard drive transplant and better graphics would be nice for playing WoW – the existing frame rate is barely acceptable. The smaller footprint would be nice and the uni-body construction would make it even more attractive. More humm…
At $699 it’s almost as much as low end iPad, which BTW I’m not getting yet. I’m waiting on the iPad to have a front facing camera and have the new “FaceTime“.
