The company has been saved by ipod so far, outside of that, it's doomed.

The new Mac Mini ends up costing more than $500. You would need ot add a keyboard and mouse ($58 at the Mac store) and a onitor. While a $150 17inch CRT Display would suffice, I would not sully a such a streamline system with anything short of a good (~$300) 15inch LCD.
Personally, I plan to buy a Mini with a KVM and share peripherals with my PC.

Whatever happened to that all-in-one that looked like a table lamp ?

I have heard some people complain that there is a rigid foam thing between the two occupants and it is not comfortable to roll over ontoThis is true. So you have a choice between a single chamber bed or a dual chamber bad. With a dual chamber bed, each person can choose his/her own Select Comfort settings - but there's the annoying thing in the middle. With single chamber, there's only one setting, but no annoying divider in the middle. I actually exchanged my dual chamber mattress for a single chamber one because of this.

It seems the advertising world has forgotten what Rush did for Snapple.

I have gone from supporting PCs to lots of little eMacs and five Mac servers. They are all tempermental. Hard to find the fixes for some issues that would never happen in a good PC. After you get the monitor, keyboard, etc for the mini Mac it seems to be expensive. Mac is still perceived as an anything but business machine and that makes it hard to see even the mini taking off. Dell can crush almost anyone.

It's th arrogance of MAC people that offends me. The call me stupid because I have a better, faster machine for half the cost.
To: Vermonter
Limbaugh could sell the new Mac to conservatives, no problem. The problem would be that liberals would then boycott Apple because Rush was promoting the brand.

Uh, I don't have my glasses on. Is that the "Hackers" book cover?
Did you enjoy it?
Would you recommend it to other Freepers as a history of the PC/Apple personal computer revolution?

Didn't he mention getting sent cases of Snaple a while back ?

My wife and I almost bought a Select Comfort a few years ago (her parents have one), but we hated it.

An $899 Dell is not in the same league with even the cheapest Mac. Any such comparison is a joke.
To: Vermonter
That looks like a notebook with a stand.
To: Vermonter
One thing I don't like about the Mac Mini is it's use of a 2.5" laptop hard drive... If it used a 3.5" higher capacity say 100GB-200GB, 7200rpm SATA drive, it would be much better.
