Did Apple officially releaes the Mac Mini and the Shuffle today?

i can get you pics with peopel with that stupid mini mac in use in their house so yes its out, no idea about the stupid shuffle thing
 
Yeah, they have it

i was at one of the fancy malls in orlando today and happened to stop by the Apple store
I saw the mac mini and the ipod shuffle

The mac mini is pretty tiny
the ipod shuffle you just plug one end of it into the usb port... sort of like a thumb drive and you don't have to deal with cords

This is exactly why I want to buy it. For my CS class we're required to either bring a crap load of floppies or we can use a thumb drive. I'm opting for the latter.
 
What happened to the initial reports that the Mini wasn't going to be released until July? I guess none of those came from Apple. It's tempting. If I didn't have to purchase another vehicle, I would probably get one. 😛

My FREE Mini Mac should arrive in 6-8 weeks, I cannot wait 🙂

RossMAN, have you been on the free ipod sites? They actually work? 😕

Free Mac Mini? How did you pull that off?

FreeMiniMac.com that's all I'm allowed to divulge 🙂

Yes they do work but it's still a pyramind marketing scheme (not scam).

I was hesitant until freeminimacs.com came out, then I gave in to the dark side (and I'm glad I did).

RossMAN, just wondering which deal you tried for the mac mini -- I have yet to get credit for mine.

Helping someone else get a Free Mac Mini first then it will be my turn. It isn't easy but it is possible 🙂

That's all I can say.

What fun would it be if I revealed all my secrets?

Well then we wouldn't have to cut you open like a furby
to find out what's inside. 😉

There's already thousands of mp3 players like the shuffle already on the market. I bought mine 2 years ago. The only good thing about it is the extra space (1 gig version is nice). I prolly would have bought one if it had a lcd screen.

Right, but mac's entire marketing approach now is form first, function second. And if you want both (ipod) you're going to pay out the nose for it. Mac is big time trendy right now, and it's helping their market share beyond what the market would normally allow.

1. Form and function.
2. Why do you care?
