Yesterday amid all the hubbub about the new iMacs and the new versions of iLife and iWork, there was a bit of information that was hardly mentioned.
Apple's Mac Mini received an upgrade just like it's big brother iMac, jumping to 1.83GHz and 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processors. $599 gets you a 1.83GHz Mini with 1GB of RAM, an 80GB hard drive, and a combo drive (CDRW/DVD). $799 bumps the processor up to 2GHz, gives you 1GB of RAM, a 120GB hard drive, and Apple's SuperDrive (8x DL DVD burner). Both models are available on Apple's website... not sure about Apple Store availability.
The mini was only briefly mentioned during a Q&A with Steve Jobs yesterday... one can't help but wonder if rumors of the Mini's demise aren't too far off, regardless of the upgraded machines.
