New Mac Mini Next Week?

As you should know my first mac was a mini over a year ago. I have since moved up to a mid range iMac, but this is still close to my heart. Here is what AppleInsider has to say. A much anticipated update to Apple's tiny Mac mini desktop computer is believed to be a lock for next week's Macworld Expo, according to some last minute reports.

The report also corroborate some details published by AppleInsider in October regarding a move towards SATA optical drives and hard drives. It was reported that this change would be accompanied by build-to-order options that will allow customers to swap out the optical drive for a second hard drive -- a move that will cater those who intent to use the systems as mini servers.
