Apple cuts Mac mini prices internationally

Apple went about by cutting the Mac mini price point in international markets without any fanfare, leaving price watchers wondering why that was done covertly. Apparently, this change is reflected in all markets which are not priced in the US currency, although Australia seems unaffected – not in a good way, of course. For example, folks in the UK are now able to purchase the two Mac mini models for £599 and £879 respectively, from their previous highs of £649 and £929. As for other European countries, the pricing has dropped to 709 Euro and 999 Euro. Too bad for us who live Stateside since we still need to pony up $699 and $999, respectively.

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.
