Arrival of the Mac mini

I’ve always wanted get a Mac before anyone else got their mitts on one so I could indulge myself in one of those blow-by-blow porn shoots of the unwrapping of the packaging. My time has come at last!. (Of course,…

It’s shorter than an iPod?!

Dude. I gotta see this.

Ah, excitement! (And jealousy!) 😉

Damn.. I (stupidly!?) ordered through a local vendor to help support them. It looks like they won’t receive their shipments now until Feb 10th!!

Nice pics, they will have to do me until mine arrives 🙂

Fantastic. I’d love to schedule an appointment to see this thing.

what are the actual dimensions of the power supply?? i’ve been dying to know!

The power supply is about 6.5 x 2.5 x 1.5″ big (or small).

What comes in the box? Do you have to supply your own external keyboard and mouse? How is the speed compared to any other computer you own?
Thanks

Have you though about building a Mac Centric Home Theater System? http://www.HomeTheaterMac.com is a great site to find help. Take a look and join the community.

So we know the power supply is big, do we have a weight?

The overall weight listed on the outside of the shipping box was 1.7 kilograms (about 3.75 pounds), and I’d say the mini and its power adapter account for about a pound each of that.

did you order it with the wireless connection kit? theres also a video out on the net showing how to open it and upgrade the memory

i may just play it safe instead, i’ve read about the crackling, and popping sounds when opening it up.

What voltage does the PSU take? 110V or 110-230V ?

I’d like to know whether the power supply is compatible/interchangable with the power supply of a powerbook. Maybe that’s too much to hope?

Is there a tuner card option and 5.1 SPDIF output? Without that, it would be hard to use it for a media-center PC.
