After the release of the Mac Mini on the market, the PC industry understood it had to react, and AOpen decided to make a little Mimi-clone. It looks the part in my opinion and it looks a lot like the Mac Mini. the advantage over the Mini is the presence of a Microphone-In, a S-Video Out, and you can pop in a CPU and HDD of your choice… which is not the case with the Apple, where you’re stuck with a 4200rpm HDD and a 1.25 or 1.42Ghz CPU). So everything seems to be going well… but… there is still some work to do on the pricing aspect: for 80 EUR more than the Mini, you still have to get a CPU, RAM, HDD and an OS… which doubles the total bill of this configuration! So on that front, there’s a lot of ground to cover! Aside from the pricing, this really looks like a nice initiative, and if it could hold a Dual Core AMD processor, I might get tempted to get one…
