Mac Mini--why I think it won't take off

Name: Anonymous 2005-01-11 21:47

Thinking about it, I don't think (at the current pricing) the Mac Mini will be that successful, in Australia at least... If it were at the AU$650 price as was rumoured, yes, it'd grab the market of home users upgrading from a sub-1GHz Wintel machine who don't have any real tie to the platform (not avid gamers, unable to keep their machines virus-free, etc.); it's what you'd expect to pay for an upgrade to a current Windows machine anyway. But with the actual retail price of AU$850... No, "I could by a P4 w/ Monitor and everything for that."

I showed the Mac Mini website to everyone at work and they all want one!  Perhaps the Austrailian version is overpriced but for those of us who already own the monitors and other bits and pieces it's a really tempting little package.  It'd be nice to have a Mac around the place to play around with too, plus I can check website compatibility against the Mac browsers too.
