(You can upgrade to a 2.66GHz processor as a $150 build-to-order option.) Apart from the new graphics chip-the previous models used the nVidia GeForce 9400M-the specs of the new model fall somewhere in between those of the previous two models, which included a 2.26GHz processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 160GB hard drive, or a 2.53GHz processor, 4GB of RAM, and a 320GB hard drive, respectively. In place of two non-server Mac mini models, priced at $599 and $799, the new Mac mini comes in a single $699 non-server configuration that offers a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of DDR3 SDRAM, a 320GB SATA hard drive, and nVidia GeForce 320M integrated graphics. But whereas last March’s Mac mini dramatically improved the guts of the computer and significantly enhanced its connectivity, this one, officially called the Mac mini (Mid 2010), offers more modest upgrades while revamping the mini’s design for the first time since the line’s debut.
And here we are, just eight months later, with a new Mac mini in our hands. Seven months after that, the mini received another welcome, if minor, update.
#2010 mac mini server update
Two updates in two and a half years? It was easy to believe that the Mac mini had become just as much of a “hobby” as the Apple TV.īut then we saw the March 2009 update to the mini line-the most significant update the mini had ever received.
A little over a year ago, many people talked about Apple’s diminutive Mac mini in the past tense: As of the beginning of March 2009, it had been 19 long months since the previous update to Apple’s most compact computer, and that update itself came after 11 months of waiting.
