Apple Mac Mini gets a boost

Let’s face it – the Mac Mini never really did very well in the marketplace despite it being a relatively fine machine to have in any living room. Well, this time round Apple will be offering a Mac mini that comes with an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.26GHz processor fitted with 2GB RAM and a 160GB hard drive for $599 a pop. Those who want something more will have to fork out a couple more Benjamins, where that will result in a bumped up Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53GHz processor, 4GB RAM and a 320GB hard drive. Shared specifications include the GeForce 9400M GPU and 8x SuperDrive.
