  1. Re:PC competition for the Mini-MAC? by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    When MAC announced their "Mini", it caught my eye. Wanting to buy/build a small computer for my already cramped breakfast bar, I started pricing out similar hardware. The results startled me. Most of the configurations I found were more than the humble US$499 of the "Mini", often much more. To match price I had to configure with a much bigger shuttle-style case.

    My question is this. What PCs are currently on the market to compete with this? When my wife asks for the "cute little MAC", what real computer can I buy instead?

    I know groupthink will mod him down, but if you are a good moderator, you'd mod this up. It is a good point about the lacking of creativity in the field of CS.
