More on the new Mac Mini

Loyd Case in January 14's edition of ExtremeTech Weekly calls the Mac Mini Less than You Think, a brilliant opinion piece  given that it closely conforms to my original post of January 12. It also lends a voice of moderation to the frenzy of greed the new Apple product announcements have (and always have) generated, led, in part by New York Times columnist David Pogue, who, in addition to reporting on MacWorld for the Times, hosted MacWorld Expo's MacWorld Live with David Pogue talk radio show, featuring "the news of the day, exciting guests, David's famous song parodies and plenty of surprises." He was also the star attraction at sessions on Making iMovies with David Pogue and Panther Secrets. See what you missed?

Case also comments on similarly priced, similarly sized PC minis, specifically Cappuccino's PC Series and Logisysus' tiny PCs. To them I would add Shuttle's XPA PCs,: Tiqit's handheld PC, a full computer just a little bigger than an ordinary Pocket PC or Windows Mobile PC; Sony's U series, a  full PC with an 800x600 display, still available only in Japan, I believe; and ajumpminipc's built-to-order (like Dell) lunch box.
