LOL! the photoshop analysts were the best ones. And then there were the ones that were saying someone custom made a back piece for an old mini just to shoot the video LOL!! :D they are all too busy trying to get their tails out from between their legs to post in this thread.

No doubt. Whether it's about a new mac mini, 9-11, or the kennedy assassination, you can always find tons of people who have elaborate (and sometimes very convincing) arguments why they're 'right'.

Conspiracy theorists, and some people who watch the Apple rumor mill do the same thing, first they make up their mind based on a gut reaction ... then they select the 'facts' that best suit their opinion ... and ignore other facts.

Now in this case, when this Mac Mini video turned out to be real. Those who said it was fake are now just saying Apple is stupid for putting out such a lame update, bla bla bla.

Frankly, I know the 9400 isn't a 'great' video subsystem, but it's a hell of a lot better than the previous generation (5 times better?).

I'll be off now, to buy my new Mini.
 
Mac Pro – starting from $2799

- Intel Core i7
- Blu-ray burner drive
Why do you want to downgrade a Mac Pro from a Nehalem Xeon to a Core i7?

i7 is a desktop processor, its slower, doesn't support FBDIMM DDR3 ECC memory, fastpath, and a lot more.

Mac Pro is a workstation, not a $600 desktop which the i7 is designed for..

Same socket, same speed. Pretty much the same chip with ECC and two QPIs (on the 5500 Xeon) enabled. The 3500 Xeon is the i7 chip with ECC support enabled (and lower speeds).
 
Humans are just TOO egoistic. So egoistic to the extend they refuse to believe they are flawed. MR is filled with a whole bunch of these lot. What do we know at the end of the day? These people are just pure mortals who are as blind and wrong like the rest of us.

It is easy to spot these people in this thread, and there is no need to call out their names. Just look through some of the threads around, and spot the few who always posted their "predictions" in a manner as if it's an inevitable truth, spoken by a supposed apple elite. Those are the people.

Like someone had said in another thread, we should create a thread - a hall of shame thread specially to commemorate these people, so that they know when to keep their ego in check next time.

When you know NOTHING, it's better to ****. That's the only way to hide your ignorance then to expose it all to the internet community in the end.

Life is not without its irony eh? ;)
