Steve updated the Mac Mini?!?!

[strredwolf]

News coming out of an invite-only (but Engadget got the invite) is that iLife '08 is out, the iMac has been tweaked, a new Mac keyboard is out that is so thin it better be made out of aluminum for how much apes^H^H^H^H people will be bashing into it, and oh, a passing mention that the Mac mini was also updated.

Say what?

Engadget got the details.  The Mac Mini has a 1.83 GHz Core 2 Duo processor, a gig of RAM, and an 80 gig HD for $600 now.  Before today for that price it was a 1.66 Ghz regular Core Duo with half a gig of RAM and a 60 gig HD. 

WANT.

Sadly, I may have to wait longer than usual.  The Apple Store in Columbia doesn't know when they'll get it, which would be my first choice.  I will have to make some calls around 3pm tomorrow to see who has it.

Well, now I feel justified at laughing at the people who said that the Mac mini was getting removed completely. Though I am starting to eye that new 24" iMac. Maybe when there is a 10.5 upgrade.

At this point, I'm more interested in the Asus EeePC unit. The mac mini is a bit pricy for me.
