    God hopefully they don't make the GPU worse in the iMac.

    I don't give a crap if they add blu-ray players until they add the burners, support for bluray in compressor and dvd studio pro, etc. SERIOUSLY.

    Also if they take away firewire I'm driving to cupertino (not that far) and self-immolating in front of the goddamn Apple head quarters....get it? Fire?

    @TheCrudMan: I doubt very much that they would take Firewire out of the Mac desktops without an adequate substitute. No doubt they'll keep FW800, which is perfectly fine. I still say they should put an Express slot, or an eSATA port and an SD card reader if not all 3. The damn thing is huge. They can fit.

    @dirtydink: HDMI will probably never come to the Mini, especially now with mini displayport out. They're not about to pay a fee for that port when they can just as well use their own, and have you buy whatever cable you need to make it work.

    I doubt we'll see blu-ray. Its got to be new processors. Good bye Core 2 Duo and hello Core i7 (or i5). If they don't refresh the processors then Macs will be the only expensive computer with old CPUs come the holidays.

    @orangebeef: Core i5 is a nonstarter; Mini and iMac use laptop processors, and i5 is not available as a laptop proc. Hell, the laptop versions of Core i7 just came out.

    Hopefully apple will refresh everything with blu-ray. Or add a USB 3.0 to everything, add an extra USB port, and include a external Blu-Ray drive, and the space it frees up put a hard drive there.

    You know, if the Mac Mini did not change in specs at all and just got a substantial price drop, I'd probably be just as thrilled as if they'd added the power of Christ to compel me.

    Again, unibody? Who cares about unibody on an iMac? I don't need nor do I care to know that it's xx.x% more rigid than its predecessor if it's not going to be lugged around with me all day.

    @Kaiser-Machead: Oh ye of little memory.

    Don't you remember the douchebag at the Watchmen screening who decided to buy an iMac before the movie and then lugged it into the theatre? iMac portability might be a major factor.

    @OMG! Ponies!: It doesn't count if the iMac is still packed away in its box. I just wish it was the CRT iMac so he can be punished for his shenanigans.

    If anything, I kind of expect to see the MacBook line become the netbook line - i.e. a MacBook without an optical drive and a built-in battery. Then, Apple can say they have a netbook-like computer, sell it around $700-$800, and boast good battery performance.

    Please don't put an Atom in the mini, please don't put an Atom in the mini...

    ...unless you keep the other minis(IMPORTANT), and have a $300 one with an Atom 330 and ION. On second thought don't even call that one a mini, call it a NANO, OK? Oh, and HDMI on all models please WITH AUDIO ON THAT HDMI OR FORGET IT.

    If the MacMini gets a blu-ray drive, I may consider picking one up. That would actually make it worthwhile for hooking up to my TV in my room.

    @loriensleafs: My guess would be the same people who are already buying Apple TV. Anyone who pays $230 for an Apple TV must not care too much about blu-ray considering you can get a blu-ray player for much less nowadays and can get a blu-ray player with Netfilx downloads for not much more than the Apple TV.

    @loriensleafs: As it is the Mac Mini is a far more capable set top box than the ATV, despite not having the proper HDMI and component cables. The difference is price. The Mini costs 2-3 times as much as an ATV.

    Maybe add a card slot on the side. Increased speed and such. Up to 8GB DDR3 option? Quad core in thet 24". Add another USB port. And keep the firewire.

    @mynamesafad: they are going to remove the FireWire and USB ports and replace it with one ultra mini peripheral port that no existing devices or cables will use for another 2 years, reduce clock speed and RAM, cover it in gold plated titanium, and have it so whenever you plug in a device the iMac will bitch slap you; millions will be sold as it is so innovative that it won't boot up because it knows you're not good enough as it can sense that you have used XP before.
