But Intel could have started developing a mini PC because of the rumors of Apple coming out with one. If you look at it, it does look similar to the fake iHome pictures that we saw. They could have been misled to believe that theirs would be a smaller media center than the iHome that Apple was releasing. Just a thought.

hmmm
I like the the Intel design better then the mac mini, then i haven't liked alot of apple designs, infact I only really like the G3 and G4 Mac Tower cases. hopefully more x86 computer companys will put out comeptive desgins or small type computers lke the mac mini.

no it makes sence to tell you the truth. The confence where intel shows products is much later than MWSF so this project could of been done months ago to even back as far as MWSF and they where just waiting for the confrence for them selves to show it off.

The thing people seem to be missing is that this isn't a product. It's a plastic box. An empty plastic box. Intel's "concept" the're showing off is "Let's make really tiny computers...like the mac mini!" But there's no engineering there. There's no product there. I doubt they spent months developing a small plastic box and waited for a big show to reveal their brilliance.
