Intel\'s Mac mini knockoff?

Intel today showed off its own version of Apple's Mac mini at its Intel Developer Forum. In his speech, Vice President Don MacDonald demonstrated several concept PCs, including the Sleek Concept Entertainment PC, which resembled the Mac mini, according to CNET News.com. The square, metallic-colored , which is reminiscent of the Apple's recently introduced Mac, is smaller than the Mac mini, but is only a concept and it is "unlikely that Intel itself would build such a device. The chipmaker often uses its twice-yearly developer events to try to spur creativity among computer makers. Past efforts have seen PCs twisted into all sorts of shapes and even embedded in an Ottoman foot rest...Thus far, the concept PC is just a piece of plastic, literally, although its design showed a clock display and optical drive in front, with ports such as USB, optical audio and FireWire in the back."
