 ... with a chrome finish around the edges and a white top with a faint grey Apple logo. A small white light on the front displays when the computer is on and on sleep mode it pulses to let you know it's still switched on but just sleeping to save power! It's not a very heavy computer and fits nicely on any small desk. You can get a small version of the keyboard (without the extra keypad on the right), which is probably best to fit this mini computer! The Apple Magic Mouse is great and probably worth getting too.

Crowned ReviewApple Mac mini MB138B/A: Your Opportunity To Go Mac! (1404 words)

I had this previously to my MacBook Pro. It's an excellent little computer and ideal for those of you with a PC wanting to change to the much better option - and make use of most of the benefits of a Mac! The Mac Mini is only a desktop computer and lacks the screen, keyboard and mouse. This is good in the way it's cheaper - but it doesn't work out much cheaper if you are going to buy an Apple screen and mouse and keyboard. You may want to buy a cheaper screen and keyboard and mouse, which are still compatible and then it works out at better value. I paid around £400 for mine when I bought it but there are newer versions out now, which are a lot more advanced ...  Read the complete review

Superb Mini Computer (480 words)

The Mac Mini is an excellent computer from the Apple range, which is especially ideal for users wishing to switch from a PC to Mac. This is because the Mac Mini comes as itself without a keyboard, mouse or screen so you can just hook it all up to your previous keyboard and mouse (with USB ports) and your old screen. For this reason, the Mac Mini is cheaper in comparison to other Apple computers and this version cost me around £500 initially. Today, you can get a 2 GHz version for the same price, which has a 120 GB hard drive. The only problem with mine is that I expected it to write CDs and DVDs but it doesn't have the ability to do so with DVDs. However, ...  Read the complete review

Apple Mac mini MB138B/A: sexy mac, unbelievably small! (210 words)

I am a self confessed mac fan, any mac you can think of I have it! The Mac Mini is not my favourite but it is very good. First off, the size is amazing, it really is, it looks small on the net, in person it is even smaller, about the size of a few dvd's together. The connectivity is good with wifi b and g bands, and bluetooth 2.0 for peripherals. It only has 3 USB slots, which when you have to connect a keyboard & mouse, isn't a lot. The performance is ok, with 1 GB ram and GMA 950 graphics, the video performance isn't amazing, but adequate. I haven't used it for things like movie editing, or gaming, but I think it would withstand light use like that. The operating ..  Read the complete review

Mac Mini - Perfect for those switching from Windows to Mac (290 words)

I must say in the three months of ownership of my Mac mini, I am amazed at just how quick and efficient it is. Obviously it looks great but the real question when it comes to computers is does it perform. The Mac mini runs Mac OS X Leopard which is a Unix based operating system that runs far more efficiently than Windows. The bundled software - iLife - is so simple to use. You can build a Website in minutes, or design your own DVDs. Manage your music with iTunes and your photos with iPhotos. Make your home movies come to life with iMovie! If you are nervous about leaving Windows behind then you can run Windows using an application called Boot Camp which ...  Read the complete review
