Apple Launches New Mac Mini, Shipping Today

Apple is checking off the rumors at its event in San Francisco.

Apple already treated us to a brand new 13-inch MacBook Pro earlier today, but the company made good on another rumor with the unveiling of a new Mac Mini. The new Mac Mini features the same aesthetic design as the last generation model but will get a huge bump in specs.

Based on a dual- or quad-core Core i5 or Core i7 CPU from Intel, it features up to 16 GB of RAM, Intel HD Graphics 4000, and 256 GB of SSD storage or up to 1 TB of HDD storage. Pricing starts at $599 (2.5GHz with 500 GB of storage and 4 GB of RAM) but Apple also talked about a server configuration of the Mac Mini, which will ship with two (count 'em!) 1 TB HDDs as well as a 2.3GHz Core i7 with 4GB of RAM.

The Mac Mini starts shipping today.

Say what you want about iCrap, at least they're not pushing a smartphone UI on their computers.

VladislausSo the large number of manufacturers that pushed SSDs a lot earlier than Apple don't deserve the credit?

Like who? Out of the major product manufacturers (Dell, Lenovo, HP, Samsung, etc.) Apple was actually the first to really push on SSD (macbook air) and removal of the optical drive.
