Hi, I sometimes use the visual button myself. Even the non-pro Macbooks have this, actually, so it's not exclusive.
As for the redesign, I'll be honest here. I've never seen a Mac Mini before. Never. I've only seen a Macbook. Never an iMac, not a Mac Pro, or a Mac Mini. Macbook pros are similar to the regular Macbooks, if not entirely the same except slightly different hardware. I want to see the difference between a Mac Pro and an iMac as well. The Mac pro is the crazy Mac that can hold about 16GB of RAM, I think. Or is that the iMac? I'd think the Mac Pro.
