Asus Eee Desktop PC EP20 Images Leaked

We brought you news about the Eee Desktop PC EP20 a little while back, but it looks like the chaps at Hot Hardware have managed to get hold of some shots of the final, production line models. Unfortunately, they aren't willing to cite their source, but they are willing to say that the images "are indeed shots of an Asus Eee PC Desktop product that should be arriving to market some time in the next quarter or so." From what we have previously seen, the EP20 isn't quite as small as a Mac Mini, but we're still liking the design. The bubbly pattern on the side of the white edition just makes us all fizzy with excitement. We can't wait. [Hot Hardware]

Reports of Mac mini Demise Greatly Exaggerated

Contrary to earlier reports, Kasper at AppleInsider is now saying that the Mac mini has a long life ahead of it. Well, at least 12 months worth. According to his sources, "A small team of engineers have recently been tasked with gutting the diminutive desktop and applying fresh internals." Such as...? More »

Mac Pro...Mini?

The steampunk mac mini mod was great, but even it can't compare to the awesome powers of this Mac Mini Pro design by Hideo Takano. On the surface, he managed to hack a mini to look like a Mac Pro that measures only 3.28" wide by 7.8" tall by 6.5" deep. However, the upgrades don't stop there.

Everex gPC mini Hands On: Look Out Mac Mini?

The folks at Wired recently got their hands on Everex's new gPC mini Linux based PC, and initial impressions indicate that it is a good value based on specs, but they note that gOS Linux is still not ready for prime time as a viable Windows alternative. That having been said, outside of some problems picking up monitor resolution and the notable lack of Wi-Fi, the gPC mini "worked fine." More »

Everex mini gPC Doesn't Remind Us Of Mac mini At All

The first thing that comes to mind when you see the Everex mini gOS Linux PC is that it looks just like a Mac mini except in black it is a smart way to slim down after that comically bulky Wal-Mart-special gPC that launched Everex's open-source strategy. And with an Intel Pentium Dual-Core Mobile processor, a DVD writer, DVI and S-Video outs, FireWire and a 4-in-1 media reader, it's leagues ahead of other Linux boxes such as the subscription Zonbu. The Everex mini is slated to arrive at Newegg at the end of the week for a reasonable $499, but tell us, guys, seriously, did you have to deliberately go with a lowercase "m"? Hell, that's just provocation. [Everex]

Leopard Drivers Hint at Low- or Mid-Priced Santa Rosa MacBooks

While we know that Apple will eventually roll the Intel Santa Rosa chipset down through all of its laptops, there are surely a faithful few who feel their weekly pilgrimages to the Apple Store aren't being properly appreciated by Lord Jobs. But new Leopard driver evidence nearly proves that Apple does have Santa Rosa MacBooks (and Mac Minis) in their sights. More »

Classic Mac Becomes Sweet Jukebox

One industrious modder decided that the bet use for his newly acquired Mac Classic was to make it into this personal jukebox. After ripping out the CRT monitor, he was able to squeeze in a new LCD display, 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo Mac Mini, extra 750GB drive and power supply. The only external modifications included expanding the disc drive for CDs/DVDs and adding a tiny opening for an IR receiver. OS X was modified to automatically load FrontRow upon booting, completing retro functional sweetness. Bonus pic: More »

Reports of Mac mini's Demise Greatly Exaggerated

Steve Jobs said the Mac mini is not dead yet, telling the assembled gathering at today's event he's extending the life of the tiniest 'Tosh. When asked the question, "How is the Mac mini doing? And are you updating it?" he responded, "We are refreshing the Mac mini and making it even faster. It's already in the online store." The upgrade is basically a speed bump. More »

Hacker Stuffs a Mac Mini Inside an Apple SE/30

I'm not sure how they did it, but some crafty hacker has managed to cram a Mac Mini inside his Apple SE/30, turning his old-school Mac into a modern day all-in-one. Sure, you'll be running OS X in black and white, but think of how cool it'll look as your DVD slides out from your SE/30's front vents. – Louis Ramirez More »

Haro Gundam Mac Mini Case

If you've been a Giz reader long enough, you'd remember the Gundam Haro case for mini PCs. Well, Bandai (or whoever made this) has retrofitted it for Mac minis as well. The case itself is actually more impressive in motion than it is in still shots, extending out its "ears," "legs," arms, and lighting up its arms, all while shouting annoyingly in Japanese. We suppose that's what the character's known for in the Gundam universe? More »

Mac mini to Die?

Kasper at Appleinsider is telling us that his sources have informed him that the Mac mini will Die.
...sources, for whom AppleInsider holds the utmost respect, are now pointing towards the mini's impending demise.

Then he immediately hedges his bet as far as timing.
Whether Apple will squeeze another revision from the mini, and how long it plans to allow existing models to linger, are both unclear.

We all die some day, but the tombstone says 2007, so that's when he's placing his bet. His reasons are good, but not by any means do they point 100% to the demise of the M&M.
