Rumor: New Mac Minis Dressed in Sexy Aluminum
Posted in: Apple, Mac, rumors, Today's Chili
Insiders are leaking details about Apple’s rumored Mac Mini, confirming Wired.com’s earlier predictions about the device.
The Unofficial Apple Weblog cites anonymous sources who say the new Mac
Mini will sport an enclosure resembling the aluminum-and-black scheme
seen in the new MacBooks and iMacs.
Also, sources told TUAW that the Mac Mini would ship with a SATA
optical drive, which can be swapped out for a second SATA hard drive as a
customization option.
Wired.com in mid-December reported the first rumor from an insider about a new Mac Mini. An
Apple corporate employee said an upgrade to the Mac Mini will be
launched at Macworld Expo 2009.
Our source could not disclose specification details on the device, but we predicted
the Mac Mini would be composed of aluminum (and perhaps be marketed as "The greenest Mac ever"). We also guessed the rumored
Mac Mini will ship with Nvidia chipsets — which corroborates with a
MacRumors report that discovered strings of code referring to an
unreleased Mac Mini shipping with an Nvidia chipset.
