Same crappy video, same 4200rpm crap internal drive, nothing really to see here, especially to those who've already yanked their 256mb chip and swapped it for a $100 gig...
The new iBooks look pretty cool though. The 14" looks like a great deal, though PC laptops pwnish Macs on screen DPI...
It is nice to see Apple recognizing that 256MB is useless on a modern OS, but this isn't the only upgrade the Mini needs.
Oh well, I wasn't planning on a new purchase until the IntelMac.
Hmm, I think I'll go back to sleep...
No new video card? Same hard drives?
Uncool.
Mini really should have been designed to use a desktop drive for both its 7200rpm speed and MUCH higher capacities.
