Mac Mini
The MacMini has been completely redesigned from the ground
up. It now features an all aluminum unibody design. Its
BYOKMD (Bring Your Own Keyboard Mouse Display) makes an
easy transition from a Windows based PC to a Mac easy
without requiring you to buy all of those extra things. The
MacMini has 3 models, featuring either the Intel Core i5 or
i7 processors running at up to 2.5GHz. The rear ports have
been changed slightly with a addition of an HDMI port,
enabling you to connect your MacMini to a widescreen TV.
Also included are the Thunderbolt Port, 4 USB 2.0 Ports, 1
FW 800 Port, SD Card Reader and dual purpose audio jacks.
AirPort Extreme, low power Bluetooth 4, and Gigabit
Ethernet are also included. New to the lineup is a Mac Mini
Server. It includes the 2 GHz Core i7 processor, 4GB GB,
(2) 500 GB SATA Hard Drives and ships with Mac OS 10.7
Server (Lion Server) preinstaled. Missing is the optical
drive, but Apple offers external USB 2 SuperDrive from the
MacBook Air if necessary. Below are the 3 different models:
