I'm a little dubious about that power button.... It looks like it protrudes, curved outward. Most of Apple's power buttons are flat/flush (Mac Pro, MacBook) or even slightly curved inward (iMac).
Got a tip for us?

What, has the wooden table surface replaced the elevator floor for that "authentic look"?
Or a sign of declining build quality. A-ha ha ha ha nevermind.
The shadows for the USB ports are on different angles as he rotates it. It looks like they may be uneven. Obviously a fake

I love how he spins it on the table, as if afraid to pick it up and show the bottom. Maybe because there is nothing there, or maybe the label down there will uncover the leaker. ...or maybe it's just a mocked up shell, but what a lot of trouble for a fake.
Some of you guys are nuts. Where has there ever been a video of a rumored update or new product that turned out to be a fake, 3D mockup?
Exactly.
Gotta give it to the dude- good effort at least!
Yeah, if it isn't a prototype, he/she must of put a lot of effort in to make that fake Mac Mini. I don't see why he wouldn't have made it more realistic though. White Plastic? I can guarantee that won't be sold in stores unless something is going seriously wrong at Apple.
Or how about we don't. How about Apple changes the Mac Mini. Is Apple turning into Ford, releasing the same damn car every year with nothing different about it.
Its a bit boring to be the new mac mini! Its been so long that its bound to be something radical!!!
That would never happen.... unless not having Steve for a while is causing some trouble. But I highly doubt that would happen.
The product, the box, and an video unboxing. They're all on the MacRumors Guide page for fake products.
See the iHome.
Seriously, what is so fake about it? If it was a photo, sure you can say fake all you want. Video, on the other hand, is hard to disprove.
Yeah, as a blurry white box. This is a little different, but you just like being contrary.

Just...
This thing had a video, too, guys. FAKE.
Machining a new back costs roughly the same as printing a glossy cardboard box.
In other words, it doesn't matter if it was only the cardboard box that was filmed.
