Apple just announced the new Mac Mini, with new features:
- An aluminum unibody enclosure
- Up to twice the graphics performance
- Industry-leading energy efficiency
- An HDMI port and SD card slot
The HDMI port will make the new Mini a very interesting solution for Home Theater installations.
Basic configurations are:
- 2.4GHz with 2GB RAM, a 320GB internal drive, SuperDrive, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, Mac OS X Snow Leopard for $699.00
- 266GHz (With Snow Leopard Server), 4GB RAM, Dual 500 GB internal drives, NVIDIA GeForce 320M Graphics, Mac OS X Server Snow Leopard for $999.00
Build-to-Order options include a faster processor (to 2.66 GHz), more memory (to 8GB), a larger drive (to 500GB). It can be ordered with software preinstalled, and Apple would love to sell you a stunning Apple Display to go along with it.
The Mini has been a great solution for years, now it looks even better. What really excites me is the easy access to install RAM without prying open the top case. This makes it easy to add memory if you need to, down the road. The lack of easy RAM addition was the primary flaw in the previous Minis, in my mind.
