Yeah, but for a mini tower to be successful, it needs normal DDR2 ram and a normal core series CPU.

Mini tower users (i.e. me) don't want to pay for server grade equipment for their highly un-mission critical purposes (i.e. gaming).
 
What a great article!

It makes me sad when I realize this won't happen for a while.

anything new on this? i am ridiculously sad Apple keeps missing the void in their lineup, even as they sell more and more units.
