Story: Apple Mac mini: a first look
Posted by: Jamie (Wednesday 12 January 2005, 5:18 PM)
As this is aimed at existing PC owners, a key question will be how does it computer against Windows XP Media PCs? With its small footprint it looks ideal for using with a television in a lounge to play music, display photos and play DVDs. Ideal features for this would be:
Wireless keyboard and and mouse, which is an option with the bluetooth module
Surround sound (not an option) which is a shame
DVI to Video adapter
