Which mini?

Is it the 1.25 or 1.42 GHz model? Any Built-to-Order custom options?

1GB Model

Any word on the !GB model. My Order still says "On or before 1/26/05" I ordered a few minutes after the keynote ended! Also this delay was posted on the order page like 2 days after the Shuffle was released... It's only now that's it's news?!?!? I emailed a few sites telling them this but no one responded.

Nothing without China? As if the world economy would buy electronics at this rate if the US weren't around.

Re: ipod shuffle delays

According to the Wall Street Journal, the iPod Shuffle is has reachs a 4 week delay status. Wonderful news for Apple.

You know, when those 2.5GHz DP G5 Powermacs were backordered 2 months (or more!), I don't recall anyone saying it was a 'good' thing. When the iMac mini was released and was horribly backordered by 2 or months, I also don't recall people saying it was a good thing. Have we gotten to the point where we have to spin all of Apple's problems into 'good' news.

I got one, then (sure its an old reference, but that's not the point). "Hey, Apple's laptop batteries might catch on fire. Great! Now you can work AND roast marshmellows at the same time! Way to go Apple!"

Or how about "Hey, my iMac is great! It makes this buzzing "toy/model airplane" drone that is guaranteed to keep me awake at the computer! I no longer have to worry about drifting off to sleep while trying to get some work done, which could be dangerous if my head were to fall on the keyboard. I'd like to see Dell innovate like that!"

Whoohoo, it's getting closer! And not a minute too soon, as my 700MhzG4 is locking up every hour or so, while swapping memory. Come on Mini, I neeeeeed you!

FYI: I customized a 1.42Ghz w/ 512Mb and APx card ($753) while Steve was still prancing 'round the stage w/ the mini box. I called the 800# and got "Allen" immediately! Then, in about 90seconds, the deal was done and my confimation had arrived in my mailbox. (They use the same web-interface as store.apple.com, but seem to have priority and their sessions won't time out. That's how I got mine ordered so quickly)

I secretly hope 512 is enough and I won't care about CoreImage. Time will tell. I'm going to go look at 20" monitors now...

Mac Mini in my hands!

Got a notice from Apple that my Mac mini would ship 1/19/05. I recieved the Mac mini today (1/20/05)!!! at 9:30 in the morning! I would like to first say that I have been a Mac user since 1994. I have heard rumors that Mac users buying this Mac would hurt Apple. Well... I would like to say that this is helping Apple tremendously. If it were not for the cheap price, I wouldn't have even purchased a new computer from Apple for quite some time. This computer is 100 times better than I had imagined. Everything just works perfectly. Definately worth the money! Thanks Apple for a great product and an affordable price!
