Star Does the Mac Mini Stack Up?: A Comparison
Linked by Brian "eXtra heavy" Czarski on Wed 19th Jan 2005 17:41 UTC
Hardware, Embedded Systems I have been an omni-platform user, Windows, OS X and Linux user for some time now. I love different things about each platform and loathe just as much as I like about all three. The release of the Mac Mini at MacWorld really made me wonder if Apple made good move in jumping into the low range market. I decided the best way to see was to compare the Mini to my primary box, a similar system in specifications and price.

more on hard drives

"The hard drive in the MacMini is a 4200RPM Laptop drive from everything I've read and seen."

Not only that, but also going from an 80 Gig drive on a PC to a 120 Gig (with 8 Mb cache) would cost about $20 extra, while with Mac Mini you are pretty much out of luck in that respect.

Btw, anyone has a link to the picture of the Mini's power supply?
