New Mac Mini to Launch at Macworld San Francisco?
TUAW believes that the Mac mini will indeed see an update at Macworld San Francisco next week. Rumors of a Mac mini update have been ongoing with most expectations pointing to Macworld.
TUAW's report is light on details but expects at least two major changes
- The internal optical drive will be an SATA drive that can be swapped out with a second SATA hard drive
- Design will change from the current white plastic to black plastic and aluminum.
Based on circulating evidence, we also expect the new Mac minis to be based on the NVIDIA chipsets. This design change should guarantee the use of the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics card at a minimum. This should improve the graphics capabilities of the mini significantly over the current design.
Earlier this month, Wired also reported that the new Mac mini would be released at Macworld.

I think this Macworld is going to be huge - with huge announcements of new and innovative products - to show that Apple can dazzle without Jobs.

The only time I would ever say "lock" is if we saw kexts for nonexistent products in OS releases... hey, wait... ;)

I guess this is good news, but not that relevant to me. I'm hoping for something exciting that I'll want (selfish, I know....)! :D

By this point, if we don't get a new Mini, I'd at least like to see an execution, funeral or burial for the old model.
Since Apple seems to be canceling their appearance at Macworld in favor of setting their own dates for events, does anyone think that if a Mini is announced, that its actual shipping date will be postponed?

Well, although I have no interest in a Mac Mni, I just hope it gets updated for the people who have waited for an update for so long.
I know, I care about people's feelings. :apple:

Is black the new white for Apple?
Will the AE and Time Capsule be available in matching hues?
Only a week to wait... :rolleyes:
