Well it’s good I bought one when I did. Apple Needs this market sector, so I am wondering just what the Hell is going on. Because for me Price was a factor! And in future this means any other macs will have to be Bought the old way, as old from Ebay. Which is often quite frustrating as the mac you have just bid on gets snached away in the last second, for 50 Cent more than your top offer!
I can only plead with apple to make a replacement of some type in this price class, so I too have the choice of buying new.

I really want them to update the Mini… I want to switch to the Mac but I don’t have the money to buy anything like an iMac or a MacBook so the Mini would be perfect for me. I really wanted them to update it before Christmas so I could get it then. If Apple didn’t have the Mini I think their base price for a Mac would be too high.

Come on Apple! I want to switch!

With regard to the “don’t expect any more” – that could easily be a cross-langugage/cross-cultural misinterpretation.

To me the question is minor refresh or major overhaul?

oh hell no!

that is craziness to discontinue the Mac Mini…i think they need to revamp it big time but to get rid of it is insane…but it could very well lead to a new line of midrange…or even something with the size of the cube but more functionality like the mini…using laptop insides instead of desktop insides…and the ability to ad or delete components like a Mac Pro…this is a sad day…

or maybe there will an ï£¿TV/Mac Mini combo coming out soon…that would be nice…then you could hook up an EyeTV to it and make it a DVR too…that would be hot
