And while I'm happy with getting a 2012 mini, I don't know that I wouldn't get one of the new versions, had I waited.
My mini was a refurb 2.6GHz/i7/8G/1T, for $759.
Again, it's a refurb, and the 8G o' RAM was a silent upgrade. Anybody know what this went for, new?
In all honesty, for my use, the I probably wouldn't notice any difference if the new $699 mini was secretly swapped in, except maybe for the Radeon 5000 graphics.
For most mini and potential mini users, the improved (somewhat) graphics is probably more useful than a hotter processor.
