I agree, the mini-Mac is awesome sounding. Questions that probably no one has answers to yet: 1) Can you use any monitor, or do you have to buy an Apple display? 2) Will it include an Airport card? (I'm guessing not) 3) What is Apple's usual timeframe for being able to upgrade the operating system for free when the next version comes out? In other words, if you buy a new computer and then soon thereafter they release 10.4, what is the usual cut-off date for a free upgrade? And 4) when will local stores have demo models for us to drool on?
I'm already talking my parents into this -- they are the only MS hold-outs in the entire family.
