I mean, it's nice, but face it: it's a white box with a slit on the front. It doesn't have the cuteness or personality that, say, a 20" iMac would. even the G4 cube was cooler than that.
It's nice to have a cheap Apple option, though. I might get one just for what to have, because I dig OSX.
Who knew they made Macs in coaster sizes? Now I can throw out all my saved up Free AOL CDs for the price of a full size PC! *rolls eyes*
I don't think I will ever understand the OOH SHINY aspect of Mac Life that manages to negate the utterly ludicrous pricetag of evertything that Apple makes...
Well, bear in mind that you could, for nearly the same pricetag, get a Shuttle PC with an Athlon 64, pop your favourite flavour of Linux in it and have something maybe 50% larger that runs twice as fast (at least), can actually be customized and modded with ease AND is just as stable. The only reason I don't use Linux is that I'm an avid gamer, and waiting 6+ months for a game to be made available for Linux is kinda sucky.
