Some people have professed their doubts - while others have already erected tombstones - but a new rumor is circulating that the Mac mini will be eliminated from Apple’s lineup.
“Whether Apple will squeeze another revision from the mini, and how long it plans to allow existing models to linger, are both unclear,” reports Kasper Jade. But he continues, “Ladies and gentlemen, AppleInsider believes in all sincerity that the Mac mini is dead.”
The mini would presumably be replaced by the Apple TV. Still, mini fans need not give up entirely - there’s been no official word from Apple on this subject.

Unless they’re planning to build a smaller version - it would be a sad loss. That things is too cute, and portable and useful and AFFORDABLE - why get rid of it?

We’ve put large books to press on the Intel Mini using Adobe’s InDesign. The Intel Minis work incredibly well, as long as you up the RAM. Much prefer it to the iMac–have been waiting for the next speed bump before buying new Minis (was hoping for improved GPU once they write the Mac drivers for Intel’s x3000). It would be a shame to drop such a nice machine.
