Mac mini to get upgrade soon?

by Stephen Chinnadorai on Mar 22, 2008 at 08:55 AM

Mac MiniThe Mac Mini is Apple’s cheapest computer, and smallest desktop computer - great for those who don’t need much processing or graphics power. But recently there have been several rumors of its death nearby, brining a new mid-range Mac to replace it. According to AppleInsider, the Mac Mini is not dead yet - and may receive an upgrade soon. They speculate that these are the new specs the Mac Mini will get:

  • 45-nanometer Core 2 Duo mobile chips starting at 2.1Ghz
  • 800MHz front-side bus
  • Stepped-up Intel graphics processor (most likely GMA X3100)

There have been so many Mac Mini rumors recently that I can’t decide whether this one will happen. AppleInsider has a relatively good track record, and I also think that the Mac Mini isn’t going yet. I think we’ll see an upgrade like this in the upcoming months, but probably not a major re-design.

    I imagine that the long range plan for the Mac Mini is that it and the Apple TV will converge to become one living-room multi-media computer with large hard drive (DVR), HD out, wireless, the Apple Remote, and more.

    Just my speculation…

    Are you an idiot?!?!?!?!?! Apple TV has NOTHING to do with the mac mini, it is its own program, God I wish you people would think before you start to write.  You need to go back to grade school and learn to use your brain all over again, unless it is filled with beer hops and bong residue

    ^ speaks for itself :D.

    But I do think that the Apple TV and all Macs will become one, as the line between TV and computer starts to blur.
