suitably amended to make it square. The computer is very small and currently has an Intel Core 2 Duo at frequencies between 2.4 and 2.66 GHz.
The Mac mini features a graphics card NVIDIA GeForce 320M with 256MB shared memory, accompanied by a Mini DisplayPort with support for resolutions up to 2560 × 1600 and an HDMI output with support for resolutions up to 1920 × 1200.
The computer was born to be an economical alternative to IBM compatible and it is sold without a monitor, keyboard or mouse so that the buyer can recycle any parts already in his possession. An interesting feature of the Mac mini is the low noise. The computer is equipped with an electronically controlled fan that produces up to 22 dB of noise. The noisiest component in your computer is the hard disk, which can be up to produce 30 dB during random access. So, the Mac mini is one of the quietest computers in the market.
Current versions available for sale: Mac mini 2.4 GHz: 2 GB of RAM DDR3 1066MHz (expandable to 8 GB), 5 USB ports, 320 GB HD, SuperDrive 8x double layer. Snow Leopard Server Mac mini with 2.66 GHz 4 GB DDR3 1066MHz RAM (expandable to 8 GB), 5 USB ports, Dual 500 GB HD (1 TB total) at 7200 rpm.
The shape of the Mac mini is very reminiscent of an older model computer manufactured by Apple, the Apple Cube. This computer, as the name implies, was of cubic form (apparently an old love of Steve Jobs as the NeXT workstation), and yet providing an interesting design, was a commercial failure because of its high cost and the its lack of expandability. The Mac mini, but bear in mind the Cube is much more subtle, in fact you can stack almost 5 Mac mini inside the plastic shell of the Cube. With the update of 15 June 2010, the Mac Mini is even more thin and provided with unibody aluminum casing as many of the current Apple products.
