Yes, unless that they do upgrades to the others that would put them well out in front. Now this being said, Apple does not put but 4 gb in the Mac Mini but in the latest firm ware it supports 8 gb and know people with 8 gb in them. I also know that Apple does not offer a faster HD for the Mac mini but it supports a faster HD of 7200. I will send or post the article from the place showing that. It might have been Mac world or something like that. But we or I can dream. I dream of a small platform desk top that has quad processer, 4 gb min and greater and fast HD and a great sound card and Video card. Listing the V card last in this case because I am blind now. We are not there yet in Mac or PC but we are getting closer every day. I also dream of a laptop that is just as small say 8 to 10 inches long by say 4 to 6 inches wide and not over 1 inch thick. Not there yet but maybe in 5 years or so on the laptop. I think maybe 3 or less in the desk top. Of course this is just my thoughts and dream.

At some point, of course, Apple will update it, simply because it will be out of date. However, at the moment, it isn't extremely out of date, so I think it will be a good while before a product refresh. When they do refresh it, though, what will probably happen is that you'll get a slightly newer generation of processor, and that will be because Apple isn't able to easily continue to purchase Core Duos. You won't see Minis with 8GB of memory. The Mini is designed to wet your apatite for Mac, so that you'll buy something from one of the main product lines: iMac, MacBook, or Mac Pro. If they gave the Mini everything that is available in those other machines, then you wouldn't have a reason to buy the others. You might not like that, and feel that the Mini should do more, but that is how Apple sees the Mini. It is your cheap first hit. lol Bryan -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionar...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Joe Plummer Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 5:10 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Mac mini Hi, have anyone heard any rumors about a new Mac Mini any time soon? I was hoping they would update it with the more ram like to 8gb and larger processer like maybe the new quad processer like they are putting in laptop now.
