So I'm guessing if HardMac proves correct, the base 20" iMac will have the 9400m, the mass market 24" will also have the 9400m while the other 2 24" models have dedicated cards (9600m, 9800m GTS?). That leaves the Mini with basically the specs of the Macbook as predicted.

- 1x FireWire 800

Why would a Mac Mini have a FireWire 800 port?

 

[jmitch720]

I hope so!

I have been putting off buying an iMac since November! My God I hope it's tomorrow!

 

[slffl]

Here's hoping for new video cards in the high end iMac!

[jackjason]

still crap config..

hope they make it $499 again or $399

And if the March 24th event is true as well, I'm guessing we'll see the next Mac Pro as well as a Snow Leopard preview.

 

[yoman]

Why would a Mac Mini have a FireWire 800 port?

Expansion purposes I guess. Firewire hard drive?

 

[kabunaru]

So, it appears that Apple is moving all their Macs (with a possible exception of the Mac Pro) to Nvidia cards. No more ATI, sad.

 

[the vj]

I hope a good reliable Mini ATX unit please.

 

[bbydon]

still crap config..

no kidding, they really need to get the mac mini's price point where it used to be.

 

[Aldaris]

Heres hoping for new displays too!

Hoping 20" LED, and 23" MATTTE Option! just tossing it out there...

 

[zap2]

Why would a Mac Mini have a FireWire 800 port?

FW is still better then USB, and since Apple is axing FW 400, FW 800 seems a logical step up

still crap config..

hope they make it $499 again or $399

I don't know about "crap"...I mean the MacBook is 999 for similar specs...399 would be a steel. I'd have to pick one up! Of course, it won't happen. 499 would be a nice return price point(since the Mini was first made as a sub 500 Mac)

 

[Schtumple]

Seriously? Tommorow... That means no special event, no press meeting, just a little quick update, fairly pathetic... Although I guess spec bumps don't really warrant an event as such.

 

[BenManchester]

Pleeease don't put a 9600m in the high-end. 9800 at least.

 

[aswitcher]

Price will be key for Apple in this climate. I really hope they drop the prices across the board to make everything more affordable.

 

[Patillac]

FINALLY, i can use the $500 in gift cards I've been saving since Christmas. It's been torture!!

 

[talkingfuture]

Its looking promising for tomorrow then. Will be interesting to see how the Mini compares to the "spy shots".

 

[amac4me]

Hope this is true!

For those whose dutch is not as good as mine -->
'geen quad-core dus' is loosely translated as 'So NO quad-core'...

 

[Cloudane]

Seriously? Tommorow... That means no special event

Well of course not, it's not the iPhone or aTV or iTunes or anything else subscription based
