  • Updated Mac mini line with faster processor and more ram, 2.26GHz, 2.53GHz, or 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor.
  • New Mac mini with Snow Leopard Server. Instead of a standard SuperDrive, there are two 500GB hard drives that give you all the power and storage you need to help your group work more efficiently than ever.
  • New Apple Remote that has aluminum niceness and works with the iPhone, iPods with the Universal Dock, and iMacs introduced since 2005 that have a built-in infrared receiver.
